Where did this sps come from???

interesting

I've had a few patches like that show up in my tank. They've always ended up turning into green porites like in this picture.



I've actually found them to be quite invasive and hard to kill.

Probably still too early to tell exactly what yours will end up being though.

[michaelis88]

Maybe it's Monti or sponge?

[smokinreefer]

my vote is pocci.

they can be quite prolific due to poylp bailouts growing out randomly all over your tank.

whatever it is, cool to see anyhow!

I think it's poci too. It is starting to encrust the ceramic frag plug so I guess time will tell for sure.

Hi Everyone,

Well the mystery coral that suddenly appeared on a Koralia pump last year has proven to be a Pocillopora, most likely damicornis.

Here are the shots all in a row.

I had over 60 new colonies of pocci growing out in my tank from my mother colony spawning. Kill it now!!

Anyone know what this is?

Porites maybe..

[TimT]

+1 Porites. I have something similar except it's green with a blue fringe.
