Lobophyllia and Symphillia

[raoul]

Time to try a new tactic. I posted this in the LPS ID section, but so far, no one has responded. I don't know how often that part of the forum gets checked so I thought I would give it a try on this part.

Here's the link to the other thread - it's not long

Just wondering what the major differences are between lobo and symph., and I included a pic of one we got on Saturday. It was sold as a symphillia and was just double checking.

Thanks!

looks to me like a sympyllia but they can be very hard to tell apart. If you see "teeth" along the top edge of the skeleton when it is retracted it is a sympyhllia...I think.
