Hi Guys, was browsing the thread on algae eating shrimps from Macca when I noticed this coral. Looks great ( the white one with the gold edged polyps the shrimp is standing on). Can anyone tell me what it is, and how difficult is it to keep?

Excellent. Then I might be having a new coral to go with my new shrimp then. Mind, my Majestic hasnt eaten yet as far as i noticed so with my luck, it will be the first thing it tries:(

Thanks Tangman.
