    Default LPS coral ID Please!

    I got this from DBlackman awhile back and cant remember what it is. The whole colony is about 2'' x 2''. each head is smaller than a pencil eraser. I thought maybe blastomussa merletti, but I havent found another one this small. Anyone have any ideas?



    Thanks
    Dustin

    Smaller than an eraser sounds like Micromussa
