    So on a impulse buy I picked up some corals two of them I don't know to much about so any input on how they are/feeding or experience with them would be great.

    Run carbon with the leather. I've never kept them because i heard they are the worst offenders when it comes to allelopathy!

    Thanks.

    Anyone know what these usually go for? I have a local Guy that has a basement that looks like coral heaven lol. He sells corals and services tanks for a living and has gave me some really good deals. I'm not sure what these guys usually run ... I paid 40 for wellsopyllia and 30 for toadstool ( opened its about 4.5 inch across )

    Wth is allelopathy and what does it have to do with a leather?

    Does this include "Devils Hand" coral?

    I've been wanting to remove mine but I don't know how without hurting or maybe even killing it's just really ugly, lays flat, and it gettin bigger!
