Balanophyllia Ponderosa vs. Dendrophyllia Coccinea

[neyugn0w01]

How can you tell the difference between the two?

I have the same question too! Maybe a few guys can show pics of their balanos so we can see a comparison shot.

I looked at captive reef and I swear I have dendros that look like his balanos. His balanos have lighter colored tentacles and a reddish mouth area and I have dendros that look just like and are huge too.
