Whatever they are how do i care for them as in placement, feeding, water movement, etc. Does the favia release its tentacles at night like the war coral??

low light, infrequent feedings are fine (though unnecessary), and relatively light flow. I have both of those pieces, and while beautiful corals, the names are pretty generic. I'd say you've named them correctly. Here are the two that I've got.



They will both have feeding tentacles at night after they acclimate to the tank (if not already... sometimes it takes a couple weeks or more).

Mine is at the very bottom of my tank with good shading, and it seems to be doing well.

I have been debating weather or not these are war corals (recent aquasitions)
Are they?
FWIW I only paid $25 each.... I'm thinking there either war coral or prisim favia...
