Coral ID ?

[Warr7207]

Ok, not much going on tonite and I feel MIKE is bored, so lets try work out what this coral is ?

 

[Mike]

Some kind of acro frag?

 

[Mike]

Possibly a montipora digitata frag, dunno, is it a soft coral, the base might suggest it is, in fact the base looks fleshy, almost worm like.

 

[Warr7207]

Doubt, it is soft.

 

[Mike]

Doubt, it is soft.

I have no idea, that why i posted

It is a strange one

 

[Mike]

Is it attached to the rock?
Can you see any form of calcerous skeleton?
Where did you get it?

No not attached yet, still deciding if it stay in the Mantis tank or the Reef tank.

No skeleton, definitely soft

I got as a tanksitting gift, from a fellow reefer

 

[Mike]

Then i've no idea, give it a couple of months and it might actually look like something.

Isaurus tuberculatus, sometimes called stalked zoanthid or slank polyp coral?
