There are two variations Ian. The mystic encrusts flat and there is another that encrusts with smaller bumps like a verracosa/danae ...C'mon Ian' Keep up :) Nice piece.

2 variations, yes, but the same freakin' name :tongue:

I actually like the bumpy one more than the one we have...

Mark, post a pic of yours for reference...

The Mystic's polyps are exactly 1/2 blue and 1/2 white....that is the primary identifying characteristic, per ReefFarmers....so yours is even more unique with only one white tentacle...I think yours should be Mystic Dusk......and I really like it...BTW....

Not sure why they didn't just call it a reverse superman?
