Tre, duncans are great corals, easy to keep, really fast growers and don't need much light. Do some reading and put yours on the bottom as this is where they are found usually in about 20 or so feet of water on a rocky mixed bottom. I bought a single head in Feb I think it now has over 15 heads on it and I got a smaller one a few months ago and it has about 7 heads now.....I spot feed them mysis about once a week otherwise they get whatever drifts by when I feed the tank......

They are the easiest coral I think I have ever had. I need to get a new picture of them. Mine had one head on the end of a long tubular type skeleton. I buried this in the sand and supported it with rubble rock.....It has taken off like crazy
