looks a lot better in person... Not so much a rare piece, as it is a colorful piece.

watermelon chalice is a LPS, not SPS
and it'll be more like, whats that tiny speck that you spent $100-200 on?
If you want to be actually able to see it besides sticking your face against the glass, you can expect to pay an arm and a leg.

r u sure about this...?!?

About corals, anemones, and their kin

Excerpt: Polyp size varies greatly among stony corals, ranging from some with polyps around a millimeter or two in diameter to others with polyps that can exceed diameters of 30 cm (1 foot). Stony corals with very small polyps are often referred to as small-polyped scleractinian corals (or SPS corals for short), while larger polyped stony corals are called large-polyped scleractinian corals (or LPS corals for short). Though there is no clear demarcation between these two informal categories, those referred to as LPS corals generally have polyps ranging from a centimeter or so in diameter up to the largest sizes, while polyps of SPS corals tend to be much smaller.

BD, so if i think its an SPS, and ming thinks its an LPS, we are both right...hmmm

:backtotop Twinreef has lots of nice stuff and he knows all the lineage of all his pieces...gl JP

 

[Deanos]

Exactly! :hug:

Personally, I consider them LPS due to their relative polyp size:

• Echinopora
• Echinophyllia
• Oxypora
• Mycedium
