I just picked this up yesterday from an LFS in NH and it was in a tank that was over run with Aptasia and horrible water conditions.
I think I got a deal...

I am not sure what it is but I newe under the right lighting that it would be a stellar coral for my tank.
I bought it for 75.00 and I had them throw in a peppermint shrimp for free.
When I got home I acclimated it and then cleaned off all the crap that was on it to make sure there where no bugs or aptasia's.

Taken with Canon T2i: First placed in tank

Taken with Canon T2i: Under Actinics

Taken with Canon T2i: Taken this morning, with all 8 t5's on

[mainereefer]

in salem nh there are 3 stores within 5-10 min of each other
jays aquatics
oceans in glass
aqua addicts

all great stores but jays imports so wild colonies all the time prices have doubled in the past couple years but still decent prices

It's almost worth it to go there and get some corals come tax time! but the Wife is letting me upgrade 120+ size tank... we are looking more for a 7 foot long 200+ tank right now and planning.
