Yes, once a week, they grab some when I feed the fish, and get target fed on Sunday morning before the lights come on, they get a mix of roids, cyclopeeze, reef chilli, coral frenzy, and a hunk of fresh shrimp.

Very nice, I almost picked up a sun coral from one of the Lfs, my jaw almost dropped when he said 79.99 per head and the frag was 3 heads... Needless to say that was the very last visit to that store.. Let me know if u ever frag it, I would love to try and start a colony from a single head or two

I was under the impression that Dendro and sun coral are not the same species......
Sun coral I believe is much more pricey.....

Sun corals are generally a lot cheaper than dendros. Saying that, Paying $80 per head is insane. Generally, Dendros sell for $10 to $20 per head depending on the seller. They are pricier than sun corals because of the larger heads and the fact that they can tolerate light and will remain open during the light cycle where sun corals will only open during lights off.
