I just received this beauty several days ago and it seems to be maintaining it's color pretty much.
Great polyp extension at night, currently feeding Reefroids and Red Sea AB+. Temp is 78.

I'd love to hear anyone's experience with this particular species of coral and if they have any tips to help keep it healthy. Tia! :)
 
I had a green and purple years ago. Loved food. Got it from vivids. I can't tell you if you have a colder water welso or not. That's been one of the issues I was told about.

Thanks for the info!
I have heard that there are cold water varieties. Hoping my temps aren't too high just in case..
I'm going to attempt to reach out to the seller and see if it maybe and that they have possibly acclimated it to warmer temperatures.
And some of the literature that I've read apparently that is a possibility!

It takes time, but it would be nice if the vendor was told about it by the collector. The collectors don't always inform them what temps the coral was gathered. But yes, takes time to get the cold water welso to accept warm temps. A few months.
