    Nice buy! I bought one a while back not knowing what it was. It's about 5-6 inches but the sweepers stretch about an additional 6" out of it. I love it though. Really nice under actinics.

    I gave a friend of mine a frag and he has a pc t-5 mixture. His is about 6inches from the top and is doing better than mine. Mine is being attacked by mushrooms though. At the end of my cotm thread I mentioned it. Now the shrooms are taking over. I don't mind at all;). Lower lighting tends to make it lose its green color.

    Becareful with this coral, as mentioned below, its sweeper tenticles will kill anything it touches. Luna
