Default Anyone ID this coral?
I'm curious what this coral is. I've had it forever. If it isn't clear in the photo, it grows broad, flattened blades. It doesn't show distinct polyps.

Wow...Brad, if I am not on the waitlist for that one, can you put me on? I can't remember what I put my name down for when I was there

Beautiful looking coral with a very nice growth pattern.

That particular piece is about 3" across. I have about 5 or 6 separate colonies of this spread throughout the tank. The largest is probably 6".

I've had this for years and years and never known what it was. I like it because it is quite different looking. It is a bit problematic because sand tends to funnel into it, so I have to blow it out frequently. Tanks without sand gobies wouldn't have this problem.

I've added you to the list.
