OK... everyone knows about my Micro fascination... In my time collecting various morphs I feel I have educated myself at least to the point of not knowing anything about the morph I am about to post... LOL
Recently, in a micro Trade I received a very nice but equally interesting morph. The morph is called Rommulen Warbird and I know no more than this about its origins.
This micro seems to fall out of the commonly accepted rhealm of Acan identifiers. Most of the micros that we collect in this hobby for the greater part are in the Taxon Amakusensis and of the Genus Acanthastrea... Basically, they appear as miniature Lords... Fluffy, meaty bodies with a central mouth on a flattened, rigid skeletal structure... When irratated the "Meat" or "Body" of the Micro pulls back and into the skeletal portion actually pulling the mouth open and protecting the meaty or body portion of the creature inside the skeletal structure. I am not attempting to educate you but mearly to preface the following morph.
It appears that this morph instead of pulling back into itself draws itself up almost like a "coinpurse" then as it relaxes it loosens the strings and opens to eat.
Has this micro been identified?
Is this actually even a micro?
