So I am very very new to reef tanks. At the beginning of this year mr lfs accidentally gave me a free scoly on a Xenia frag (weird i know). I thought it was some sort of acan at first but now I am confident it is a scoly. He was in awful shape and I’m proud to say he is thriving now and eats lile absolutely love this guy but long term I don’t think he’ll have a place in my tank. With that said, I’ve looked around at different scolys for sale and I’ve had trouble Identifying the color morph. Does anyone have an idea of what morph this guy might be. And more importantly what his value is?

the closest thing I could find is a “red ring scoly” being sold for $110

I have absolutely no idea. It was a little busy that day. Maybe they just didn't care and were in a rush? Or they were just being nice to me since I was new.
