bubble coral?


Hard to take care of? too much for my 14 gallon?

I just think they look awesome and was thinking about getting one.

I'd be afraid of it stinging everything in a 14g they get really long sweepers

I would say it could get to large for a 14 gallon, depending on placement they will grow across other rocks as well. I have one that I placed in a grove on a rock and it is now attached to the rock under it.

Other than that not a ton of work just every so often spot feed it, I feed mine silversides...

research what lights you need first and if you can give the coral that light, then I say go for it

I would only have that an maybe one lps coral in there and possibly two clownfish

They are not to hard to care for if you get a healthy one to start with. Acclimate them to bright lights very slowly. If you can find a small one it may be okay in a 14gl for a while. Eventually it will need a larger system.

Not a good ideal for a Nano that small.

Nope, I wouldn't do it. It might survive for a few weeks but definitely will not thrive or grow in a nano that small. I'm sorry!
