The mouths appear to be different and the skirts are more grayish blue compared to yours which are brown.....from my perspective :)

I think this might be a good addition on this spotlight.. I've had this adult polyp for almost 4 months now.. it was a nickel size when I got it and grew a little I guess... :)

Here's a baby frag picture of them.

IME, they take some time settling in before exploding into their large polyp sizes. This also applies to growth as well, at least in my tank. :) Once they settle in, their growth rate just explodes.

I had some on my big 500 rite at the top in med flow and they grew a polyp a week without feeding them... They were the fastest growers in my tank... They are kinda cool but I love my sticks... Some of these things make it really hard to stay strictly sps...:(
