Found this among some LR. Anyone know what it is and it's requirements?

I also saw my emerald crab muching on some of it.

Thanks,

From the pic it looks like galaxia, or galaxy coral.

Moderate to high flow. Moderate to high light. I've only ever had a very tiny frag of it. But it's held on through a lot.

And give it plenty of room. Those guys can produce some devastaing sweepers.

they are VERY aggressive corals (the most aggressive LPS i believe) and will send out sweepers about 6" long. So dont keep anything 6" downstream of them.

Will they keep Anthelias(the thing is a weed) from spreading over
