Was shocked to see a very different type of soft coral in 2 feet of water on the fore-reef (Rasdhoo Island, Maldives) the other day.
This area is very shallow with high temps and a fair amount of turbidity (suspended sand particles if the waves are slamming).
The coral is very stiff (wave...
Anyone know the ID? Someone said reverse gorilla nipples but it doesn’t match exactly. Mine has more green yellow inside(sorry i cant see certain colours so im not sure). Looking for another guess or opinion. Thanks
Hi all,
I recently had this coral sent with a load of Zoa’s I ordered and I’m struggling to identify it.
I had to refix it on the plug as it became separated and it’s been looking a little sorry for itself the last few days.
Many thanks in advance.

Heya yall! I got one heck of a doozie for you! I bought a live rock for some sponge growing on it but I noticed what looks like a coral...or more than one type?
I have no idea if the second one is a coral. It looks like it has coral features. Likewise, I'm almost certain this is a coral...
Was moving around my scape and just barely caught a glimpse of this guy and was hecka confused. Took a closer look and figured I’d just ask for help identifying it I’m thinking a pseudo but not quite sure.
I recently bought this frag for $10 but I’m not quite too sure what it is. Also, in the first image (present time) the polyps are down, is this an indication of decreased happiness or too much flow?
Hey everyone! So we bought this beautiful blastomussa yesterday & the lady said it was a newer kind of blasto that stays much smaller (im new with corals) & I know it’s not an Acanlord :/

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!
So I recently purchased 3 corals but my brain refuses to let me remember what they are. I should have written it down before I left my LFS guess I was to excited!
Please help!
I’m pretty sure the one to the far right is a Zoa.
The first pic will be of all three together and then I’ll crop them...
Hey guys I got some zoa from a LFS that are a bright orange with a white ring around an orange mouth. All I have for pics is my iPhone which is terrible but I’m wondering if anyone can see if they’re possibly creamsicles?
I got these for 10$ yesterday and I have no idea what they are. They have an orange core under the black lights and an orange ring around the outside of the bell. I’m happy with any guesses.
Hello all! So I decided to get back into the hobby now that I had some disposable income. I found a great deal on a 100 Gallon glass tank, had the protein skimmer, lights, power heads, heaters ,canister filter, stand and all the accessories for feeding and tank maintenance for a $100. I couldn't...
Purchased this Acro from a local store a while back, it’s colors look much better now than when purchased but they didn’t know any specifics about it. Any help is appreciated!
I got this a month ago from the lfs and other than it be a "supernatural" encrusting coral i didn't get any other information about it. Probably should have asked more questions but I was excited as always at the coral store.
Mainly I want to know the type so I know how to care for it best. It...
Hey guys, the first picture is goniopora, I put it in yesterday...but I was wondering if anyone can tell which type of goniopora it is?
The second and third I added today..the second I was told is possibly a green finger leather, but to me it doesn’t look the same as the photos I’m seeing...
