Ist bei mir rasend schnell gewachsen und kann sich wie auch andere lederkorallen in verschiedenen Abständen "häuten" (bei mir hat sie es meist einmal im Monat gemacht)

Eine schöne schnell wacksende Koralle die auch unter T8 und T5 gut zu halten ist.

Diese Koralle sitzt bei 250 Watt HQI am Boden (60cm). Sie breitet sich stark aus und nesselt leicht.
Sie ist 3 Jahre in unserem Becken.
