Can I get a scientific name for this please
After feeding on coral yummies: Another dying freebie I got awhile back was just about 100% clear and "shedding" white strips of its flesh. Was told it was a red brain but I cant find a matching pic anywhere. |

Cynarina species have cone shaped skeletons, possibly Scolymia Australis, or Trachyphyllia Geoffroyi.
