I'm guessing a scolymia that stays small lol
I’m guessing that . Sorry I probably already answered it before I said it . Just never heard of them . John , Kevin , and Joel have me into getting the large ones and I never heard of these .

Yea they are the ones that got me wanting one as well they are such influences not sure if it's good or bad influences yet... Lol I just loved the color of these two when I seen them and I had to have them.
 
Did you guys know that if you place an order with corals.com and then device you want to add something else you can as long as your orders not shipped yet? So here's what I decided I just had to add on since my husband's giving me money for Valentines Day.
You definitely can. I read that you just buy the extra item and message them and they deduct shipping. Personally I would message them first or even give them a call and tell them you want to add it, and give them your order number.

Let me know if you have any luck. I was wanting to add an acro to my order, but I only have until 1pm tomorrow lol

Beautiful selections by the way. Ones Ive considered myself.

Either one or all would be nice !
 
Nice I’ll bet they would look good with the standard size ones
I figured I would try these two and if they don't die on me maybe later on get a couple of normal sized ones.

I messaged them before I posted it and they said all you need to do is place the second order and choose the option to add to current order on the shipping section and of course choose the same date as the first order. It was so easy to do.

Thank you! Now if I remember right they do best on the sand on a rock? Is that right?

Tim is putting his on a stand that he built for his standard size.
Not sure , some put it in the sand and others put them on a stand
 
What is a mini scolymia ? Those are pretty !
The button scoly aren't the same genus as Scolymia Homophyllia like the big ones. Buttons were classified as Micromussa pacifica a while back, making them more similar to a large acan or acan maxima than an actual scoly. The classifications are ever changing, so there may be something newer info out there, but these are gorgeous corals. Id love to own one.

Thank you! So should I put them on the sand or on a rock on the sand?

As long as you dont put them too close to other corals. They have short but mighty little sweepers that can irritate other corals. Im pretty sure they're ok close to each other though. Ive seen some amazing button scoly gardens.

Yep or on rock work if you give it room to extend without rubbing on anything else.

Can you put the standard size ones together ?

Tim's stands are pure scoly perfection
