my mom bought the first pic for me while i was'nt around so i dont know anything about it it opens up pretty much all day and closes down to these little nubs at night the second one i think is pipe organ coral? they are absolutly beautifull under the moonlights bright neon greens WAAAAAY COOL

and the third is some type of mushroom coral. oh and the second one has an added bonus there is a black brittle star hiding inside i hope him is ok for everyone because i know some of them boys are not reef safe, i paid the price of three frags for 45 bucks

[mie]

A lot of people are mis IDing the anthelia as xenia, though it looks similar to red xenia it is not It is (and I am 100% sure of this) anthelia
