Needing some info.
So today I inherited a Galaxea frag from my friend who was tearing his tank down. I had no idea of what it even was lol. I did a little research and saw where they were pretty aggressive and I should give them some space between other corals. I have it by itself in the sand right now. It's about the size of a golf ball. Is there anything special I need to know about this one? The only other corals I have in my tank now are Xenia and some Zoas.

Ok cool, I put it on the sand near the glass where the current is pushing it's sweeper against the glass. So I shouldn't have any problems. I was just making sure it wasn't super difficult to keep or anything.

I would move it so the tentacles don't touch the glass. It needs decent but not strong flow, which may or may not be available on the sand bed. It can and might do best mounted on the rock work where the light level is to its liking. A permanent home duplicating conditions similar to the previous owner's might be a good idea if you can do it, assuming it was thriving there. This coral might be considered a little more difficult to keep them average IMO.
