Has anyone ever heard of this coral before? Had a guy here in DFW that was selling all his corals and he had a red planet and "green planet" I was unable to get the red but got the green one, right now the color has much to be desired but it also appears to have while polyps. Its grown over the plug its on prior to fragging from his tank. If anyone has any thoughts please, please chime in because ive been searching all night looking.
 
The red planet turns grn under lower lights and red pink under high light. Was it in a low light area? Also he was probably just trying to distinguish the two pieces.
 
Based on pics I've seen of red planets, I think I had one of the more unusual color morphs of it. It was basically a teal green with pinkish/red polyps:

hmmm, Well the base has a small amount of green to it but I cant really get a good picture to show you guys. Right now its all dark brown very dull in color. Ill keep this thread going and update with pics as it colors up. Im using LED's and so was the other guy I got it from. Although he was using the ecoray setups, which are nice, but I prefer my customer DIY 3w Cree setup, ive not had any issue with corals bleaching or losing color so we will see what happens.
