wow I would have never guessed that to be a wilsoni. Looks like a crazy inflated aussie "prism" type favia, especially in the smaller frag pics. Awesome coral and growth progression!

I thought the same.


What are you feeding to get such growth?! How long has it taken??

thanks everyone! I have had it since 11/2010
I thought it was an acan when I picked it up, for the $15 I am glad I did!

I dont usually feed my corals, everyonce in a wile they get fresh or frozen shrimp eggs and re-hydrated cyclopze. maybe once a month if that they get fed I usually just overfeed my fish

I don't think they like big flow. I had them in my frag tank and they expanded a lot. I recently moved them in my main tank with heavy flow and 1 rarely opens up
