I had one growing in the dark pretty much. Cut a bit of the rock off and now have a small frag of them. Look really nice.

No! No! LOL You guys are looking at the wrong polyps. It's the clove polyps in the top right hand part of the pic. Kinda purpley brown color. But skabooya you can have some of those other polyps when you come to town, I have lots in my refugiun. You don't want those other things.

I could have sworn I saw an SPS dominated tank once with these all over the rocks. The person said they don't harm SPS and just grow around them. Are they actually harming corals or growing over them? I think they're pretty but I suppose I also really like GSP and have decided against them too.

Well they seem to overtake my zoas. The SPS seem to to grow over top of them rather than encrust more to the rock. As in there is a small space between the coral and the rocks. It grows on the underside of my monti plate and starting to grow on my digitata's.
