Hi,
Any idea what this is? Sorry for the crappy picture

Looks like a Goniopora.

Kind of looks like a crappy picture :) of a flower pot coral, but someone will know for certain?

Like someone added, my eyes are too crappy to count petals, and my mind to feeble to remember which one has 12 and what has 24, or whatever,... :)

I think it looks like a Alveopora, but I could be wrong :)

Definitely wrong, too many "petals" for an alveopora :confused::p

 

[Scurvy]

I always forget about Alveopora.

 

[JoeBore]

It definitely has more than 12 petals. But there is no stalk? Do they grow the stalks out? Ill try get a better picture

It's a goniopora. When its happy the polyps will come out.

 

[blackizzz]

Welcome to R2R btw! :) I think there are some "short stalk" gonioporas. Otherwise it might just be that the polyps are slightly retracted.

This is the best i can get

Ive just read that these dont last too long in aquariums. Guess ive learnt my lesson for impulse buying haha. Thanks everyone. Much appreciated

No not directly but Im sure it benefits from the particulates in Reef Frenzy.
