Questions about Yellow Fiji Leather

[danny zubot]

I bought a Yellow Fiji frag from the LFS a while ago. it was a peice that fell off of the mother leather. It was about 3/4 inch square and it took me a long time to get it to stick on a rock in my tank. For a while I thought it died, but then I found it under some rocks in the back of the tank. After I finally got it to stick it did very well. I always keep it up high and in reasonable flow but not direct. It grows very slowly but now has decent polyp extension. I don't feed my corals, but this one definately shows that it struggles with poor water quality.

I would rate it among the harder of leather corals but I wouldn't say that its a difficult coral like SPS or LPS though. I say go for it, you'll really enjoy having one.
