Default What is it II ?

You said that the skeleton is quite visible yet it is not clear what kind of
anthozoan is it...
You also said that you were going to name it Fred because the Australians
havenīt give it a name..
Now look at this thing and tell me is you recognize it!

Come out of Australia, the internet opened the world for us!

LOL open your eyes. The skeleton is quite visible, and yes there are
corals that look like that. You need to broaden your horizon on the
diversity of corals. Even the person that made the original post knows
that it's not aiptasia. Even he knows that it's a coral. Even he can see
that. It's so obvious that it is a coral. And yes I am very familiar with
that coral. And no I don't know the name, but if it will make you happy,
we will call it "Fred" :-) Even the Austrailian Institute has not named
it, and yet you want me to give it a name????

So far, Wayne, everyone agrees that is Aptasia, I am not quite sure of
that but in my opinion it is an anemone.
You just think is coral but coral polyps donīt have that shape and you
havenīt come up with a name or a picture showing the calcareos skeleton
or any proof that is an Anthozoan...

You just amaze me everytime you answer something.
Do you own a business? please let us know.

Remember, you are the one storing sea water and said that never had a
problem with it...

No it's not. It's a coral. There's not need to kill it.

It's a coral. I don't know it's name off hand, but I am very familiar
with it. It is a slow groing coral that is easy to keep, benefits from
light, but does not need it. As long as nothing grows over it, or
stings it, it will be easy to keep.

Hi,

Y'all solved the Chiton real quick. Now I have another for you.

It is painfully obvious I am a rank amateur at salt water tanks, but
why is it so difficult to track down what things are? Or am I just
to obtuse?

Thanks!
