I assume those have to be fed like orange sun corals? I might just have to try those. I don't think I have enough maitainence with 5 tanks.

My LFS the other day had a rock with Orange and Black Sun Coral on it. Is that common ? Well anyways i went ahead and bought an aquacultured Orange sun coral because it looked more healthy. Anyone have tips on feeding this beautiful coral ? Sorry to jack ya thread but i am wondering because having hard time feeding it.

i have no idea if its common, but i'm sure it wouldnt be uncommon for someone to grow them like that in their tank for appeal to people.
as for feed i turn off all pumps etc and take cyclopeeze....squirt a tiny bit at the whole coral to give it time to realize food is around.....then after a while it'll start to open and then i go back in and squirt more at it heavier to make sure they get plenty of food.....try to make it a routine a 3 times a week or so...then it'll get used to everything and start coming out even if it senses it a tiny bit.
