Holy crap!!! That thing looks awesome, nice score. Don't know what coral it is but it looks big so I would keep it away from everything lol.

Prolly my luck it will be the size of a quarter!! I scored some nice Acans as well. I will post pics tomorrow night after they settle in and they are in my tank, but my photo skills are limited to an iphone and some amber sunglasses for a filter :eek2::eek1::lol:

Where did you end up getting it from?

Hoping so, should get tomorrow. Got a few other nice pieces coming (at least WYSIWYG pics are good). It was worth the gamble as I haven't seen one like this in a while.
Thanks John!
Well, against my better judgement, but RareReef (I had a little pee match with them last week, but got straightened out (lack of communication on previous order which ended good)). It was originally listed for insane price, grabbed it on the Saturday night madness sale for great price...... time will tell

I touched the website over the weekend. I never pulled the trigger but if I had seen that there is a great chance that I just might have lol...

Yes, got this morning, went home real quick to get stuff in tank then had to dart back to work. Stuff looks pretty good, I will be able to tell more tonight when I get home. It was a pretty big piece. Not sure about one edge of light tissue (about the size of a pencil eraser). It definitely has some colors, just a little dull when I acclimated.
Give me a couple days and I will post pics once it recovers from shipping and I see what is going on with it. Got a couple nice Acans as well.

Ah, but it ain't unfortunately. After close inspection, it looks to have tissue loss starting and the colors are not coming. Pretty sure they knew this and that is why it was listed for what they did. Everything else (3 Acans and a mushroom rock were/are just fine). We will see what the next couple days bring, but that is most likely wishful thinking. :eek2::worried:
They for sure Knew it would pass the "2 hour test" after delivery. You know the saying, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is to good to be true.

:sad1:
Give it a couple days or a week, shipping stress is a major bummer to most corals.
