I bought Australian Live rock about 1.5 years ago and this coral came on one of the pieces and somehow survived the whole process of getting to me. It started of very tiny (size of a pinhead). It's now the size of an actual frag. Ive since removed to from the live rock and put it in a better viewing space. When removed it has a very interesting skeleton underneath, it's longer and looks very similar to a Hammer/torch skeleton. Almost looks like a Disc Coral ( Cycloseris) but after seeing the skeleton growth underneath I'm unsure. Anybody have any thoughts?
