Got to be carefull with this type I can't really tell if it is the picture or the actual color (red) or (brown), either way if it belongs to the finger leather family is ok because it feeds from the photosynthetic products produced by the symbiotic algae. BUT, if it belongs to the ones that requires minute phytoplankton then you need to target feed it everyday, examples of this corals are strawberry coral,broccoli coral and others.

chritsmas tree coral does not contain symbiotic algae, so lighting is not a pressing requirement, however, this means the Christmas Tree Coral must be fed. The diet should include live, baby brine shrimp, micro-plankton, and other small foods designed for filter feeding invertebrates, in order to survive in the reef aquarium.


I google this,like I said be carefull, they require special care.
