Did some digging and found Pablo at MarineFarmers had lots of info for me!
I asked about basic requirements and if it would takeover like xenia. His response:

Hi Steve,
Efflatounaria belongs to Xeniids which the have same requirements as the common xenias or cespitularias. Good light/ stable Alk and pH and medium flow. I only grow one which is the it has a very attractive blue color. They grow slow and does not take over like the common xenias. Also does not pulse.
There is a waiting list for this coral which frags are very limited. Let me know if you like to be added to the list.
Thanks for checking my website.
