    It looks like a blue staghorn but the picture on my computer is very blurry so that might not be it.

    based onthe colors it does look the same... however, the growth pattern on the mother colony was not very staghorn like... more like tabling type

    i usually feed a mix of stuff, in order of importance for me:
    cyclopeeze, mysis, homemade food (squid, clams, shrimp, etc.), oceans nutrition marine flakes, new life spectrum pellets, formula two, and once a week i do some phytoplankton...

    and i will be trying something new tomorrow called "golden pearls". i have very high expectations for this food


    my corals are happy lol ;)
