Hitching coral

[joekidwell]

Hitchhiking Coral* I got a favia frag from my lfs and this tiny tiny coral was stuck on the side of the favia in the glue. Any idea what it is or if its even large enough to survive?

If you're talking about the coral (shot #2) at the top of your green rectangle???

I'm going with a tiny Montipora, if so it should survive and thrive.

The green rectangle is the coral, the dark purple spot is a polyp

I took the time to download and blow up your shot.

I may be wrong, but the green looks like, green-colored coral mounting putty.

That's almost too clean looking (slick), on top, including the sides of the green to be a coral.

If the green was another coral, then your polyps would be angry and closed up.

Thinking your polyps are anchored to the green putty.
