I had a really cool stereo coral arrive today. It was of course labeled the wrong thing so it was a complete gamble that it would be what I hoped. It is and more. Pardon its sad shape. it hasn’t even been out of the box for a couple hours when I got this photo. It’s a stereonephthya but it has different colored polyps on the same branch giving it a patch worked appearance. Those light patched are not white or faded areas they are a pleasant gold/lemon color compared to the purple red. Apparently this (Multi colors on the same branch) is a documented attribute in stereo from Australia (if I am remembering correctly) When it fully expands I’ll get more photos! This was a very nice surprise after spending a hundred bucks on a coral at another place that was also mislabeled as something I wanted and of course when it arrived it was nothing of the sort. The risks of internet buying. Also a nice surprise after having no luck with getting my local guy to try and order more. Anyhow. I’m really excited to see how this one fluffs out.
