    if you get zoas spend the extra money and get the really colorful ones. its twice as much or more but its will be worth it when those are poping up all over you tank instead of plain browns.

    I used to have one of these and yes they are AMAZING!! If you dedicate yourself to a saltwater tank then you know what kind of work goes into it. Feeding this coral every couple of days is no more work then any other aspect of the hobby. I highly support this suggestion. You won't be disappointed. Check this out for more info:

    Cheers!
