Capnella corals, also known as Kenya Tree Leathers, grow very tree or bush-like, are considered to be Semi-Aggressive, and, self propagate by dropping branches from the original colony that land and reattach to rock to form another colony.
With this process, they have the ability to take over lots of real estate in an aquarium and have given them the title of being an invasive coral. They are very easy to keep, like low to moderate light, moderate to high flow, and are typically found in the middle of the tank.
Kenya Tree corals are mainly photosynthetic, relying on the products of their zooxanthellae, but, you can feed them phytoplankton and zooplankton, as well as other products like Coral Feast and Reef Energy or other amino acids and probiotics if you desire.
Of course, you should always maintain proper water parameters by maintaining good calcium, magnesium, and alkalinity levels.
