Very good question! I failed. I kept an orange one (about 40 polyps) alive for about 14 months. I still have it (in the sump) because there is now a huge sponge on the bottom, but other than that............
I fed it, it ate, and ate, and ate, and ate, and then it lost interest in eating. It took about 4 months for it to fully die off, one polyp at a time would slowly peel back over a few days or a week, some would eat, others not, different foods, it just wasn't interested.
