Cheers Glenn in what way is it aggressive

[ginac]

Doesn't like other corals too close to it.
I have one that hates Xenia anywhere near and sends out sweeping stinger tentacles.

As ginac says

On top of being aggresive it is also likley to win the battle with other corals, soft or hard as far as i know.

So if like me you have a colony of this stuff and have any other frag fall close to it, its goodbye frag with only a failry short contact/exposure time.

Does anyone now what the coral is in the lower photo

:thanx: Jason

[Jonesii]

The lower coral looks like a Merulina species. I have one in my tank, they are also extremely aggressive, particularly at night when they extend long sweepers too.

HTH (if it's right)
