 Brain Coral Death Touch I just bought a Favite brain coral and was wondering how fare their sweeper tentacles can stretch. I had read the Favite Corals are very aggressive, expanding their sweeper tentacles at night well beyond the base and killing any other coral they touch. I have it in the corner of my tank right now, but would like to know where I can fit it in at. Thanks

| Re: Brain Coral Death Touch A definitive answer can be found with a red flashlight and a ruler.Wait till it is fully opened and measure.The length they extend beyond the edge should remain close to the same no matter how large it gets. |

| Re: Brain Coral Death Touch Ok, thanks. I was wondering how you see them, I have yet to feed it, and was told you had to do it at night. Thanks
