andy Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 Any idea what this guy is? At first I thought maybe a branching Monipora but now I'm not even sure he's stony. There's about 2 weeks difference between the two shots, whatever he is he's growing like a weed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
impur Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 Sure is shaggy!!! What does it look like with the polyps retracted? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy Posted June 28, 2006 Author Share Posted June 28, 2006 I don't have shot of it retracted, but it looks slightly... fleshy. I'll tick it off when I get home then snap a pic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reefboy Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 looks like a toadstool leather but definately a leather looks like in the sarcophyton family 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy Posted June 28, 2006 Author Share Posted June 28, 2006 ooks like in the sarcophyton family I just looked up Sarcophyton sp. in Borneman's book. Definitely a good call, there's a picture on p.131 that looks almost identical. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
