    Tell me what you guys think!

    This is a semi new piece of coral I've got in my tank.

    He is about a month and a half old and he had 2 heads on him, already moving into 3. I've heard they produce pretty dang slowly, so hopefully. This is a sign that my tank is operating smoothly.
    =) Suggestions, comments are appreciated.

    Great looking piece!

    Yea I think frogspawns produce slow. IMO hammers are the ones that produce really fast.

    Very nice specimen and it seems as if all is well for your new coral. Hammer and Frogspawn species of Euphyllia tend to be more hardy than that of their cousin, the Torch coral,though all make a wonderful addition to any reef tank. Just be careful as to the placement of your euphyllia coral to existing corals as well as those you plan on purchasing in the future, as Euphyllia corals carry a strong sting that can and will injure or kill neighboring corals.
    Best of luck!

    You heard wrong :p...frogspawn is a relatively "fast" growing coral. Needs just little flow and very light forgiving.

    A great and very hardy coral...

    Very nice piece...

    Won't take long at all to grow allot bigger...

    Enjoy!
