Was sold as a Aussie Acan but not sure if it is something else? The Polyps are about an inch.

Symphyllia that I hope will fully recover. Starting to colour up.



This is also colouring up.
Shot from a week and a half ago.



Shot taken three days ago

It is an Acan, it's an Acanthastrea hillae.

Got this today, very different... tentacles are MAYBE 2-3 mils long has about 30 heads packed in it. Color I'm sure will improve as it had a rough ride getting here



This I got a few weeks back starting to show great color




Oh by the way, both from Fragalot
