| Coral ID Hi there. This is the first time I'm making this post. I saw this site while looking for a way to have some of the pictures I took while SCUBA diving identified. I have not seen this coral (?) which I attach here somewhere else. Can someone please identify it?
I think the soft coral posted by [u]bottom feeder belongs to the genus Lobophytum. You can browse the internet for similarities. I just hope this could be useful. I noticed the posting was done months ago. |

| It looks like a irritated Colt to me.. But to really tell it needs to open up first (: But Colt would be my guess from that set of photo's _________ Some of the world's greatest feats were accomplished by people not smart enough to know they were impossible (Doug Larson) |

Agree with Tangster...you will know for sure, once coral opens up. Did you see it fully expanded at LFS?
