It kind of looks like the chalice with two different coralite colors that Acanlord posted on RC.

don't know but somebody better come forward

:bigsmile:

Here is a picture of the main colony. The purple edge really comes out under lower lighting. The picture posted by FaviaFreak was taken under 150 W Phoenix's with VHO actinics. This picture was taken under 400 Radiums with VHO actinics. Higher light seems to bring out more green in the edge.

It actually can develop three different coralite colors. If you look in the upper right hand part of the colony, you can see pink coralites along with yellow and green.

30+ eyes, from 10 eyes a year ago... getting its green rim back after being in a little to much light.

Same with this one...

A piece I salvaged/rescued from an LFS a couple days ago. It was in the softie tank, no one there knew what it was. The eyes are very flourescent, and I could see it extending onto the browned out base.
The piece has alot of potential. We'll see, it could be dead by the end of the week.
