fredknack Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 Hi When I started my tank about 3 years ago one chunk of live rock had a sliver of florescent green on it that was about 1/8th inch wide by about 1/2 inch long. Now it is about 1.5 inches. Does anyone know what this coral is. The photo does not really do it justice. It is VERY bright green and maybe a little fuzzy but not much. I know what the soft coral on the side of the picture are. They are green palys and they are taking over my tank. If anyone wants any of these let me know. Thanks, Fred Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fredknack Posted December 10, 2010 Author Share Posted December 10, 2010 Thanks Isaac I did a Google images search for Psammacora and most of the images were branching sps. But a couple did look like they were close. I would be really shocked if this coral started growing branches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReeFit Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 Looks like my psamacora as well. It should have sort of a velvet look when the polyps are out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fredknack Posted December 10, 2010 Author Share Posted December 10, 2010 The more I look at it the more I agree. I am stoked. Free coral. I got the live rock from Seahorse. I am going to glue some chunks of rock around it so that it will hopefully overgrow the rocks letting me frag it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
