Rare symphyllia wilsoni FS

[mylifeismyown66]

I have 2 colonies of this beauty, 1 in my display, and 1 in my frag tank that I just broke down so I am looking to sell a frag that was cut a month or 2 ago, and the smaller colony I was planning on keeping in that tank. I bought this from a friend years ago and it has done very well for me.Here are a few pics to show color and growth

Looks to be more like a goniastrea or Prism Favia.

That's why I posted pics of growth. It is not. Confirmed by 2 very knowledgeable people in the industry whom I won't mention names of. They got it right off the bat. It does have the prism color. The theory is this wilsoni grew close to a prism favia and reacted to its proteins giving it this color.

Ok GLWS!

Thanks! One of the people confirming speaks all over the country at conferences and has been propagating corals since a teenager and now owns his own large coral company. The other an owner from my LFS. Has been doing this for 26 years and used to get wilsoni often when they were more obtainable.

I've saw it personally and is not a prism favia.

Can't wait to see this in person! I've got a couple others, nothing with these types of colors though. I was skeptical at first, but after looking at the growth pics, it appears to be a wilsoni!

 

[mylifeismyown66]

Sure is.I think it's actually the coral I've had for the longest.I'm trying to find some other nice ones myself

 

[Scoly]

I've got a few others, maybe we can do some trading down the road when they grow out a little more

 

[mylifeismyown66]

Bump.would I get more interest if I cut the remaining large piece to 2 and 3 head frags? You won't see another wilsoni like this one! Would also consider trades for another nutty wilsoni.

I know this is an old thread but anyone have this coral or any like it that want to sell a large frag. I had a 5 inch round frag I got from unique corals for 150.00 but it died so looking to replace!
