i know it's a coral (which one I have no idea), but i just have to point out that if you don't look closely, the shape is very octopus-like! Even the "eye" is the right shape and place.

that is 1 sweet looking coral!!!
|
my first thought was some type of favia/favites. But not 100% sure
|
Hi Guys, yep, I think it's a favid as well. I was hoping some one would tell me the latin name, or at least a good name so I can frag it and call it some thing other than "colourful coral for sale":lol: It's pretty nice looking, It's definately an encrusting coral, I've never seen any sweeper tentacles on it. And the colours that you are seeing are not photoshoppped at all! After we figure this one out I have another one that I will make a separate post about.
Beleive it or not, this coral was kind of a freebie, it was attached the the base of an SPS coral that I bought from J+L a few years ago, I hated the weird base that the SPS came in on, so I broke the main coral off of it and attached it to a larger rock. This coral was about an inch across when I first detached it from the SPS, since then it's spread over about a five-six inch area. Has anyone ever seen a coral like this before? |
I've seen that 1 before.....wait a minute.....didnt I take that picture? lol
|
I want one
|
Looks more like a Pavona sp. to me. Maybe P. Decussata?
|
Thanks Drock, That's waht I needed! I'm going to copy the second one and surf it out to see what they look like. Cheers!
|
I'm going with Pavona too, but I don't think it's P. decussata.
