So I picked up this neat little coral about 2 months ago. I was told that it was a “finger leather”, but I really don’t believe this is true. When I first got it in my QT it opened up and was a beautiful blackish- purplish- peachy color with a main stem and branch pattern. After 2 weeks in QT I put it in the display and it has NOT be happy since. I think the main difference is the light, the QT has a cheap light that doesn’t really do much other then replicate ‘okay, it’s 9am! You should have light now!’ ‘Okay is 8 PM, goodnight!’. I’ve tried a couple places around the display and this seems to be the place where it’s opened up the most so I stuck him there.
NOOOOO idea what it is, any help???
It’s attached on a small piece of rock that I epoxied (sloppily at the moment) to a rock in the DT. The base of the coral has this fibrous coating on the outside, it feels similar to hay or staw but very small, it acts kind of like a flexible bark. The rest of the coral is soft and does feel like a leather coral.
