Very nice pieces everyone!

mrgreenthumb - my LFS sells those as bowerbanki's. I can get them for $85. Exactly the same.

looks alot like a single lobo head

I got a full polyp of this from the OP" benihana " in a trade about 16 months ago. If you could see this in person I seriously doubt it's any lobo species, but I'm no expert.

The polyp size at max is 1 1/2 -2" and circular. It has since developed two maybe 3 mouths & is slowly spitting into 2 smaller circular pieces.

The only other coral it matches to me in size, shape, & looks is Scolymia australis.

Rant about the Acan Maxima.....haha.


(Had to past link in and rename it httx - I guess we can't link to "r-builders" pages? And the "r-" stands for "reef")
