    Just like most coral, stable params, and correct Ca, Mg, Alk, salinity go a long way. Also adequate lighting, and decent flow.

    EDIT: SPS i see the sub folder its in. lol

    Actually one of the hardest to color up. Mine will let me know ASAP when it's unhappy. does well mid level with fair flow, gives a medium purple color on it. But just a slow grower.
