29 gallon nano reef build

It appears to be something in the caulastrea family... But I'm not sure.

 

[TLTGF]

Another option, I'm looking at my phone so pics are tough would be a micomussa or blastomussa.

The trumpet and candy cane corals are part of this family. I was thinking that it was either closed for the night, or not doing well.

It's a flame scallop.

 

[Gboy66]

It's a flame scallop.

Im going to research that right now!

 

[JEnelson]

So what you are telling me is that I got sold a dying candycane coral for $15 and yeah the flame scallop is pretty cool and likes copepods and is really fun to watch move around the tank

 

[pokmijn]

How come you didn't get the electric flame scallop

Some night time pics

 

[JEnelson]

Alright I gotta new question does anyone know what kind of coral this is the lfs didn't know other than it had flower looking ployps

 

[TLTGF]

My vote is for a sympodium coral.

 

[carey]

Blue star polyps! I have the exact same coral!

 

[JEnelson]

Yeah they don't have the normal zoanthid look just really smally close flower shape polyp do you think $21 is a good price for it and how does it spread or look. Do u have a pic of yours

 

[carey]

This is mine and let me tell ya, if it comes in contact with another rock or surface they grow like weeds. lol Mine doesn't look too good cause it is infested with aiptasia, but it's still growing and spreading.

 

[JEnelson]

So do u think $21 is a good price for it

 

[carey]

yep, I paid over $40 for mine.
