i have a large chili coral that i don't think my tank is up to housing, since the power outtage. incase you didn't read, my tank went through a lengthy enough power outtage to kill off alot of livestock.
now, recovering from it, the non photosynthetic corals have to go. they don't seem to be as happy as they used to be.
i have a fairly large chili coral that i need to sell. 30 dollars plus any shipping is the cost. here are a couple pics-

Can I ask any special care tips? I just got one from SWF.com and its not opening anymore at night... What specific care do you give it?

there are no specific care tips other than leaving it in a shaded spot and have a well established tank with good parameters. the reason i gave this one up was the fact that i just had a massive die-off from a power outtage, and i don't feel my tank is stable enough right now for such a creature.
you can try feeding the tank at night with filter foods like phyto.

Thanks for that... The reason I ask is because mine has started to not open it's polyps at night... It still expands the red part, but the polyps don't come out. I decided to hang it upside down in a cave today, so I'll see what happens. I hear that they can be fairly tempermental if they are moved... We'll see how it goes. Thanks for the advice!
