well, the plan was to wait until my new 15 was ready, but when a bunch of these came in from an island near australia(dont remember name) i had to take one. hes got a little pale spot on the bottom right, but its not recession.

hes in my 29 right now, under the lowest light/flow i could find, which is still enough for my sps ;)

wellsophylia, right?

Why sir, I would reckon that is a wellsophyllia. I just picked up a really similar piece actually.

Looks like they could be brothers!
 
Loser, I was all trying to act like I didn't know you & such, blowing up my spot here you know. Not very nice.

Yes, I am very sure your wells could destroy mine since he is bigger, but mine is by far prettier, I will post a pic to cream yours once I get home & decide to not be lazy.
 
For what its worth, thats a Trachyphyllia geoffroyi. Wellsophyllia is considered a defunct genus, and radiata is a defunct species.

Resume fighting... lol
 
ok so it is a trach, my boss wasnt sure, and he kept asking me if anyone on the thread corrected me, so thanks

and way to take the cooler sun coral today heather, and whatever happened to that 5 you bribed me with if i bagged it before Benny's?... jerk
 
Yea, Why wouldn't I take the cooler sun? Let someone else grab it so I get crap? duh!

Benny didn't want a sun. So there. It was the other guy who offered me his knife to stab you. lol. smart man.

I took pics last night of my new trach, ya know, the one that is nicer than yours. I will post tonight.

radiata and geoffroyi looks much different from each other, even LA still has them under separate species, I think they are now trach radiata, so that wellsophyllia is the only "defunct" name.
 
Ok, Trach Radiata, would make sence. They really are very very different in their form, so I would find it hard to believe that they would clump it under one name as well!
 
yea heather, dont talk to andy(the knife guy) hes soooooooooo sketchy

i have to tell you what he told me, not RC safe. hell it made a teenager cringe, thats how gross it was
 
See, there you go, I love it, being a nice boy. =)

K, now you got me allllll excited to hear gossip, I LOVE gossip!!!

Ok, and a tad creeped out at the same time, don't tell me I shook hands with some kind of.....(insert something not RC safe here)
