Anthelia care?

PringlesLFE

Mmm...Salty.
Went to Petco today to pick up some food for my dog and happened to run into my old high school chemistry teacher..and apparently he's a reef junkie!
I'm going to meet with him this weekend and see what he's willing to frag off to me from his 125Gallon tank.

He mentioned a bunch of different corals he'd be willing to toss to me but I forgot all their names except the Anthelia. I looked it up when I got home and feel like i'm finding a lot of different advice.

Figured this is the best place to ask. :^:

What type of wattage light are we looking at in order to keep this? (what would be bare minimum + high tank placement)---until I get a real light.
Are they easy or difficult to keep? i've seen both stated on multiple sites and am thoroughly confused.

Thanks everyone
 
Anthelia needs low to moderate light. It's a soft coral, and it's closely related to xenia, so it's not hard to keep at all. It tends to spread pretty quickly and can take over if it's left unchecked.
