BEACH!!!!! oh ok

hey i have no experience with them but this is the information i gathered from fish domain.com............... Hey ask the gurus who have kept them like AT

"The Closed Brain coral is a difficult coral to keep and should be left to the advanced reef hobbiest. It requires extremely high levels of light and near perfect water quality. Requires monthly feeding of baby brine shrimp and daily water supplements. However it does make a fine addition to the reef aquarium"

See the info i got from fish domain, it stated that closed brain need lots of light........... And i have no experience with them, its better if you ask those who kept them like AT

These brain corals definitely need light. Depending on where they are collected the light requirement can defer a lot. They take to being fed seafood and fish food. If conditions are right, they will thrive but they don't show a lot of growth.

Like most other corals they extend their tentacles at night to catch food.
