This worked for me until i gave up with the coral because of the amount of work it took to keep it up and healthy.

Most online stores or LFS's have these corals. Usually when you see them at the store they look like the last picture and look like that most of the time.

Good point Matt, that is the 'ideal' way when you have issues with fish or pumps not allowing for enough food to be taken in by the coral. I target feed with the pump turned off for about 15 minutes. Mine is in my prop tank until I get my 180 up...Ok, that is going to be a while Regarding lighting, I have it under T5's, but I have had them under MH's as well. It receives med flow. I also have a yellow one; however, it doesn't open as ofter or for as long a period. Here is a pic. or the orange one.
