    Well, my wife is on a roll, no longer is she just 'ok' with me buying the occasional coral, she is now goading me into buying corals. So like a fool, i opened up my DD Sneak Peak and saw a DFS Green Horrescens on the list. I have never heard of this coral, and after some research found its a branching galaxea coral! Now I know i know, sweepers of death, but from what i've heard (and thats not much since this seems to be a pretty rare specimen) the sweepers are not bad at all, and since I got two hydnophoras in my tank that aren't causing problems I figured why not? Anyway, pics in a week or so when it arrives!

    Congrats, keep the coral in a high flow area to keep the sweepers from extending as far.
