Un-named when I bought it because it was the lamest polyp ever haha. I saw faint orange and figured it had potential, and well....I guess I was right! If anyone has it please come forward with the name.

It somewhat reminds me of a Krakatoa, just different coloration, maybe naming it after a different volcano/similar large geographical formation.

Also, it is hard to see in this picture, but if you can see the little dot on each skirt tentacle (green portion), that is a dot of yellow. Very unique feature!

Yeah, now looking at it again, it more reminds me of a cool lunar morph, but I still think a large volcano or mountain's name would be good.

~UPDATED PIC 3/17/14~

The orange has filled in a little and a pattern is becoming distinct in the center. Skirt is still holding a yellow/green look and a baby is forming!
