Green Star Polyps(GSPs) belongs to soft corals.

i dun tink most LPS love strong current, maybe slighty stronger for those torches but most of the hard corals cannot tolerate strong current directed at them IMO.. ;)

put a sps lor. strong current and strong light...that's the best ingredient.

If you put a hammer there, with strong current, eventually it will lose it's head.

May be a RBTA if you like anemonie. They love strong current and strong light.

I also tot of SPS but I don't think I wanna venture into SPS again... haha budget budget... nvm lah i see what comes along then...
