Finger Corals

mav.23 · 04/27/2018, 03:45 PM

Hey guys! So I am thinking about getting some soft finger leather corals (pink) and I wanted to make sure they would work well in my tank. I have a 50-gal aquarium with a young false percula ocellaris clownfish, a young yellowtail blue damsel, young Valentini toby saddleback puffer fish, and a convict blenny pup. What light would I need to keep these corals/ any tips? I know puffers are known to nip at corals so I plan on keeping this little guy fat and full. I will have live rock too because I know they need to mount. Thanks!

They like a moderate water flow and a high direct lighting.

IME they're not too light demanding, but they like a lot of chaotic flow. This helps with the shedding process, which they'll do from time to time.
