It's an indonesian capnella variety..it goes by japanese Kenya although Japan doesn't even import coral. Coral has been photoshopped, you are paying for the size of the colony. The coral is sought after by softie collectors

Just another example of overpriced coral. It's $600 because some people are willing to pay that much.

"What would it look like under white light?" I don't know... but I'm thinking something like a gray Crayola Crayon. LOL. :cool:

So you’re saying we could actually name it that and sell it for even more? :p

No but about 28-30 weeks.
Maybe just in time for next hurricane season. You will love it. Power outages. Gas shortage. Boil water in effect. I miss those days, !

I was trying to use a laser level outside and had some of those red glasses. Tried them on while looking at my tank. Everything was neon. iirc, those glasses were free ... I can recommend a pair.

Very cool, Id totally pay like $50 for a frag and grow it out. I guess the pricing has more to do with the amount of frags you can get off it

This is what made me extend my plans.
Storms, winds and rain galore
