Hmm... 'Life Span - months - years (with care)'. Ouch. But they are very pretty... I love that pic of the blue one surrounded by coral (and what looks to be christmas tree worm tubes, makes sense).

Thanks for sharing! You've given me an idea... a tank with Thorny Oysters, Porities coral, and christmas tree worms. Continuously fed :wink: Are these often available?
