Todays Mystery Coral

[Dubbin1]

I have no idea what it is or where it came from but I found it laying behind a rock today. Looks like its going to be green when it gets its color back.

Merulina?

 

[Dubbin1]

Well if it is then it sure isn't like the Merulina that I have in the tank now.

I'm guessing that it is something that I got at a swap and forgot about

I also found a long lost zoa frag that I forgot about

I found one of those long lost zoa frags yesterday too! Fun to find new stuff, huh?

if it was on the under side of a rock. could it be a sponge? what the hell do I know:reading:

 

[skippysmind]

was it attached?

Apparently not much Yes was glued to a rock.

Wow this must be my lucky day. I just found a baby hammer in my sump and some zoos and a mushroom in my cube tank. I think I'm going to spend the rest of the night searching for more long lost corals.

I was just there and they don't have anything worth looking at.

UPDATE

I still don't know what this is but I was just looking at it and noticed bright purple polyps popping out of it Whatever it is I think its going to be nice.

Frag dibs!:bounce1:

Oh, and...

 

[Dubbin1]

This is the best I could do for now.

 

[selgado]

Oooooooooo! Double dibs.

 

[jenghes]

Second dibbs!!!

Got a purple B-nest frag for trade.

 

[selgado]

Purple birdsnest? You know all this time I was thinking purple pocilliopora? I'll have to scrounge around for something to trade.

 

[weimers75]

Looks like its going to be montipora danae or confusa.

Yup - birdsnest. The pointy variety... Histrix, I think. It is a fast grower.

I have a raspberry poci also. It looked really nice under the lighting at Trop. but duller in mine. It will need some time to be fraggable though.
