I am still adding to my Caribbean inspired tank and came across the SPiny Flower Coral in the dive guide book.
Since no legally collected hardcorals are available from the Caribbean I have to go for look alikes.
The spiny flower looks a lot like a branched lobo in the pictures.
Has anybody seen the spiny flower coral in person? If so do you think a branched lobo would be a decent stand in for it?
