New Coral

[FishinInTheDark]

Hi All!

I got a new coral yesterday. It's a pectina. The shop where I got it told me it's medium to low light and low flow. I have no reason not to believe that, but I went looking online for more information and couldn't find much! Does anyone out there have any anecdotal information as to what made your pectina the happiest in your tank?

Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the coral compliment, nbaker! I was just looking to find anyone who had one to see what gave them the best results with this guy. If it's very rare, look out frag traders!

That's a nice looking coral Conni.....I've seen pics, but never seen one at an LFS....

Did a little checking around....general concensus is low light, low flow.....no direct feeding.....

good luck with it, I hope it does ok! :D

This one came from Animal Attraction (that I told you about). I was excited to see some different things there. Thanks for the compliment and for checking for me!

Oh, and $1 for a 30G! I've been looking for a cheap used 20G to make into a fuge and can't find one anywhere. You made a steal! Congrats!

TC,
