Hi, I have had this coral for a while now, and am thinking of selling to to free up some room in my sand bed. I am not sure exactly what it is, someone told me its some kind of lobo brain or something like that. What do you think? How much do you think something like this is worth?

Looks like a scolymia vitensis to me. I've seen anywhere from $40 to $100 on orange ones like that. Very pretty coral.

i agree, they're known to have more than one mouth at times.

+1, great find. I'd say it's worth about $80-90 smile.gif

Indeed, it would seem a little bit bleached. Keep on feeding it etc. and it will eventually color up as it should.

It may be a little bleached, some of the color is washed out from my camera, its usually pretty brightly colored. You guys are making me change my mind about selling it, I think I may hang onto it for a while.
