Bowerbanki purchased now what?

[ewoolpert]

I purchased this Bowerbanki from POTO and I am debating whether to put it on the rock work or a tile. I guess I am looking for your opinion on the best way. Never had a Bowerbanki.

My bowers all sit on the sand bed on a small piece of rock/tile.

they can be mean little buggers and throw some pretty good sized sweepers

Do you allow the skeleton to grow over the sand or is the tile large enough for it to continue out on it?

Never even heard of a bower banki lol
Do they sometimes go by other names?
To me looks like a scolly or Trachy but I often get confused with these 2 plus favia,favettes, lobo,acan,meat corals anyway so now another one to add to my confusion ha ha

Homophyllia bowerbanki, use to be considered a type of Acan.
