    What is this? What does it need to grow good. The LFS had it in his bin of coral that is not doing good. I was watching it for weeks and it was growing back nicely. I just want to give it a good chance of coming back the rest of the way.

    It is a dry heat, yeah right !
    Trachyphyllia radiata/open or folded brain coral. Lower lighting then sps, mod flow/indirect. Maintenance of adequate Ca/Alk/Mag, avoid alk swings and low levels. Target feedings of this coral go a long wise in rehabilitation of these types of LPS.

    ID open for debate, really need a better image under better lighting.
