cabbage coral care?

HammerLover · 03/15/2016, 09:40 PM

I'm gonna go now more on softies for my 10 gallon rather than LPS although there were 2 octospawns already and a fairly small torch coral.

The corals now are GSP, Xenia and purple shrooms.

I just reserved some cabbage corals awhile ago, anyone can give tips and experiences about them? Thanks!

i assume you mean this one, since it's probably the most common...

there is virtually no care to them. with proper lighting and flow, set it and forget it. i have a really nice piece that has spread across the rock in one corner of my 75g. it isn't the prettiest thing out there but it's very easy to care for!

Oh yes that's it exactly! The one I've bought is the flgreen-ish one. So basically its a very very easy coral?

I'm gonna place it in the sand bed with a bit of laminar flow near my shrooms.

And thanks too! ^^

I have cabbage in my 120 gal. reef. very easy but you want it in good flow. they shed on a regular basis and will shed faster with good flow. I even help mine with a turkey baster.

Its now in the sandbed with a bit of flow. My GSP were swaying happily near it
