Notes: This is one of two Moseleya that I have, which appear to be a less common coral in the trade. I’ve seen it extend lengthy sweeper tentacles, which at one point was devouring my Scoly around 3-4 inches away.

Both at feeding time (for fish) and at night, the coral exhibits a strong feeding behavior. A close up on one of the corallites.
