Green Hydnophora

Hello everyone,
I just acquired a frag of what the title says. For what I have read and show videos of this coral...that this thing is dangerous! I have it on one end of the frag tank with nothing around it. I saw a video on it and the guy said that one of his frags fell onto a Acan frag when he left the tank for 15 minutes and whit in that little bit of time the Acan was dead...WOW...does anyone else have this coral...besides the person who gave me the frag.....what experiences have you had with it?

I heard this thing has multi mouths on it and to target feed it bits of meaty foods and other coral foods.

Was very easy care for me never target fed. Can pack a nasty punch so I never had it near other meaty corals.

Mine never bothered anything and there were mushrooms and candy cane right next to it. I didn't target feed it either. I've never seen any tentacles or anything from it. It was in a position that nothing could fall on to it or vice-versa so I don't know about that part.

No need to feed it..and it doesn't like to be touched by other corals lol it will attack majority of corals it touches..trust me Xenia is not one of them

theres a lot of corals that will attack other corals. I know a guy who had a torch coral frag fall on (or get knocked on to) a scolly and ate a good chunk out of it in a half hour

I have the green branching and pink branching also the green encrusting. I have had mine for at least 3 years, unfortunately it is one you don't want to touch others! I just fragged mine, it is a great beginner coral, hard to kill.:yes:
