Does anyone know what the requirements for this coral are?

Am interested having seen some pics, but don't really know anything about it.

I have not got this coral myself, so i can only quote what my book reccomends.

Moderate tanks 50g or larger
Bright illumination. Zooxanththellate, but will benifit from feeding of small zooplankton or particulate matter.
They need space as they possess long sweeper tenticals (12") that will sting other corals.
They prefer turbulant water movement.

My ID book gives it the common name, STAR CORAL

12" sweepers?!?!

Not a great move in a 24G then

Thanks for the info, will avoid.
