Just curious about this thing, it was very light pink a week ago, got it for free, it feels like it had 0 flesh when I put it in my tank. It has noticeably gained saturation and is red now, but still appears to my eye as having no flesh or polyps.

What species of seriatopora might this be? Or could it be something else entirely?

PD Fabio the snail has been hangin on it all day so i pulled most of his hair off, put it 3 ft away, and it found its way right back to the stick, so disregard the algae BG, he has been relocated away again. Gonna brush him clean tonight.

I'm not JEN Veron but I don't think that is a Seriatopora caliendrum, but it kinda has the same basic growth pattern? What it doesn't have is evenly distributed polyps. Could be what @Bribo12 just posted. They also grow like yours is.

Edit: Lets call it a misidentified Seriatopora! :cool:
