Nice little setup Jack! Is that a Rumphella gorg on the left there? It's enormous!

I'm not positive on the ID but it's photosynthetic and hardy.

If you post a closeup I can maybe tell you. I'm guessing it is Rumphella though. Sort of yellowish, really tiny polyps? (And photosynthetic )

That is a sweet piece. I'm guessing it's indeed Rumphella sp. (for whatever my guess is worth). Love the growth pattern.
