help with coral, (soft nephthe?)

[peonleon2]

So i recently bought this coral from the local pet store, they called it a soft nephthe. I am not sure if that is the actual name of it and i can probally get a pic if needed. MY question is that is was all nice when i got it and after a week it suddenly dosent look good at all.
does anyone have experiance with this coral and can tell me how much light it needs and if it is tricky to keep.
im looking for general knowlege about this coral
any info will help

you can try doing a search for it under the reef tanks board and find some info. I'll tell you that I have a neon green one & like you I had the same thing happen. My problem was that I wasn't giving it enough water movement, I had one of those powersweep powerheads I aimed it at it and it's doing great now, very pretty coral. Just make sure not to give it so much water movement that it blows over. I also use a turkey baster to feed & I let the really fine stuff blow over it.
