Mini Blastomussa?

[Carebearsss.x]

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 :/

Can you pls help me identify this?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!

Maybe a Blastomussa Merletti. They like Par under a 100 and med flow.

I love blastomussa's, I have a few high end blasto's, I feel they are extremely underated.

Blastos are my new favorite, recommend any places that have some nice ones?

TSA has the Black Widow blasto, you just have to look around. The WWC Rainbow Blast is nice. Cali Kid coral usually has some nice blastos.

Cali kid seems to blast his corals with the blue, not a fan of that.
TSA alwaya has nice corals though

I just got this one. Lfs said they’re blasto but really look like flowers of some sort. Wonder if this will turn out to be just like yours at some point?

Looks like a blasto where the skeleton has been cut down really thin for some reason.

cali kid corals and pacfic east aquaculture and BSA corals is where I find my unique one's. My current order from calikid

Those look literally unreal. I would be interested to see what they actually look like, without any editing.

AquaSD has a nice selection of Blasto’s.

Blastos have been a great beginner coral for me! Awesome addition

What do you all feed them? I use Reef Roids and then drop Fauna Marin LPS Grow + Color.

Mysis shrimp are good for blastos. Like many LPS, they like meaty foods.

 

[William Morris]

Mysis are tough to feed because of the fish. I do feed the fish first but their instincts take over and they steal food from the corals. I know you can do the bottle hack but I have so many I would be there for an hour.

I still say they literally look unreal. Would love to see (un-edited) photos when they come in.
