Here's my two palythoa's currently in the tank. (At least I believe they are!! especially after this thread, I referenced my book and still believe they are, especially the brown ones. The green ones have a little more stalk, but they definately have a rather large area of "base" tissue) The dark brown one started as a single tiny hitchhiker on the live rock on startup and now has 9 polyps surrounding it. The bottom is a greener variety that I acquired in a trade with vilas. The brown ones have been halfway up, moderate light, moderate to light current. The green ones rest on the sandbed, mainly because 2 rubberbands later (both rotted over time) I gave up on trying to get it to mount. It's doing fairly well otherwise, and hopefully it will someday attach to the rocks down where it is.

oh yeah, both also like a little direct feeding at times, whenever I feed the tank I make sure I blast 'em with the turkey baster of goodies, they always swallow the food rather quickly.
