blastomussa wellsi or merletti

[NakiFantaki]

What type of blasto is this? Won this frag at an auction for $20. Just wondering which type it is.

Sorry for the bad pictures... [emoji53]

Looks like a Blastomussa wellsi to me. Merletti has smaller polyps.

It's a wellsi. I have the same ones.

Here is merletti
They have smaller polyps than wellsi

Skeletal structure is the answer. Branching = merletti, encrusting = wellsi
