Be careful with clove polyps because they can grow like a weed! I think if you place them in a hih spot in the tank that it may limit there growth. The same thing with xenia which is the problem I have encountered. I cut the xenia and 10 more polyps will replace one big stalk. I am now squirting Joe's Juice on the smaller polyps and that seems to be taking care of things for now. I like polyps and yours look great, I just wanted to give you sopme FYI!

My all time favorites! Metalic green centered with orange tips.
Cloves look very similar to some xenia, but they're in a different family.
Puffer, that's a pipe organ coral. Cloves and pipe organs are pretty similar when open, but the pipe organs have a hard skeleton on the bottom.

I had no idea what they were, I had never seen them before, they actually came on a piece of LR, and are getting bigger. I posted a pic awhile back and someone said they were clove polops, figured they knew what they are talking about cause I didn't. I have never seen them anyplace for sale, do you know the reson or any info on them, it reminds me of a wild flower, love it!
I love your cloves!
