This is what I usually see over here for trachys. And yea they are $500-800 unfortunately :(
 
It’s got feeders out which is what is throwing you off ;) the other polyps too, do you have any pictures of them closed or do they always beg for food? Lol
 
It's a trachyphyllia but it looks very unique

Thanks mate it’s been my favourite, been with me since I’ve started the hobby, so pretty hardy coral [emoji38]

I’ve seen some on the web, how can you explain that something can cost 500$ in the states and not so far 100$ pretty sure the profit margin is bigger in the US

The feeders are always out, day and night they only close to feed.

The resemblance is very similar, that’s why am thinking that they were trachys
 
Looks like acan. Trachy more wavy and meaty on a skeletal base

Are you referring to first pic shared mate? I think that one yeah acan bowerbanki for the moment.
 
Button scoly

It doesn’t have the bone structure at the base to be one, I got 1 sw and 3 normal ones to compare it to, thanks for the try anyhow.
 
Clearer pic- looks like Trachy

Still strange to me, one of them formed a new mouth
 
Trachyphyllia grow multiple mouths:D

Am still not keeping my hopes up, they still look green to, there’s no sign of any colour coming from these.
 
Scoly
 
It’s been around nine months since the inicial post, that means update time.

She has now developed 4 mouths they seem individual mouths similar to an australomussa but not flat enough to be one. Any thoughts
