The coral has grown well in my 120-liter reef tank. The gold tips are vibrant and the tentacles move naturally. I’ve kept it for six months and it’s still healthy with no signs of stress.

Beautiful coloration and active movement. I placed it in a moderate flow area with good spacing. It’s become a centerpiece in my tank and looks stunning.

Arrived quickly and the coral was well-packed. After a few weeks, it started extending its tentacles and has been thriving in my stable tank setup.
