Woah that coloration is INSANE.

I always thought Button Scolys had smooth edges and the dimpled edges were more a croc island thing. Or has it been reclassified again? (the taxonomy seems to change about once a month ;-P)

Spot feeding day... and thought all would appreciate the scolys. Please excuse the sand as my goby was running around trying to grab food.

I mostly only have scolies in a 20 gallon tank and they’re all healthy and doing incredibly well. I alternate feed them copepods, mysis and reef-roids.

Lucky corals seems to always have a decent selection of the really fleshy types like Lobos, trachys and scolys. Also cherry corals - they have some beautiful red and blues atm

Checkout LBA aquatics on eBay… got my beauty from them for what I feel is reasonable price, around 3-4” around super healthy…
