    Ok we'll I recently got a pipe organ coral for a gift 2 days ago...
    Question:
    What are my main health concerns of keeping this colony thriving?
    Question#2:
    Is this an Sps and is it going to need alot more care then my GSP's?
    Question#3:
    Do I need to target feed?


    Aside from that I'm liking the beauty of how the koralias are pusing the corals hands around so beautiful...Also that green it has is a kind of green that's a must have for any reef I say!;D

    Lots of people think that softies don't use Calcium, Magnesium, Strontium, nor alkalinity. Well that's not true at all and Tubipora spp is one of the best examples of a softy that uses these elements. Keep those parameters in line and give it med flow and med light and they are pretty easy to keep.
