ID Coral hitchhiker.

I may have gotten a bonus with my order today, on this piece of coral rubble I seen this guy, right under the snail, it looks to be alive or something in there, I will know for sure later if it decides to retract out of hiding, is that a plate coral?

 

It is indead a plate coral. Hope it is alive and survives.

 

Place it on the sandbed; natural habitat for plate corals.

 

hope its alive and good luck! kinda looks like bubble algae in the center but it might just be the quality of the photo or my bad eyes!

 

I was going to say the same about bubble algae. Bubble algae loves plate coral skeletons. If it is alive place in sand bed, if its bubble algae be very careful and gently pry it loose without popping it and discard bubble. Wooden toothpicks work well.

 

I do believe its alive, I see a mouth or it looks like a mouth this morning, if it is bubble algae it will give the Emerald Crab something to eat. I wonder why they left that Coral on that branch, it would have been easy to remove.

 

No doubt! its alive, its small tentacles are starting to come out and more color is showing, thats really cool, if it needs to go in the sand bed, I can cut that portion of the stag horn coral its on and move it that way.

 

It's Alive

That's great.

 

VERY NICE HH. If you don't want it I'll take it. ;D

 

hahaha!! I think he has a home already I am very suprised that LiveAquaria left it there, nothing better than getting 2 Corals for the price of one, the order was for 1 SM Zoanthid Sunrise Supernova.
