    Default Old sump coral

    Wow, glad I didn't dump this one for cheap. This sat under T-5's for a couple months and was a brown color when I put it in there.

    Nice, what type of coral is it? It looks like a brain but it also looks like some type of acanthastrea.

    Looks to me like one of those new super-rare species, I think it's called an "acanthastrea sumphowensis", about $4,000 per polyp last time I saw one! ;)
