Purple Porite
I just saw these on a website.
Does anyone have a pic of one? It looked very cool.

 The good one I had seen in LFS, was like light-green jewel under MH. But I have only PC and sunlight, so... BTW, my was originally brown, and almost an year later started coming green. Strange. Had seen in LFS the small-polyped medium-green porites with wine-red worms (Christmas tree rock) - very good looking. You can check the Google (or any other) image search for Christmas tree rock (or worms) and see this kind. |

More photos of the duncan polyps structure: , the full name is Duncanopsammia. Looks like a grey version of the sun coral or dendrophyllia to me, only photosynthetic and with larger polyps.
Don't have one, just discovered their existence a few days ago

Actually they have over 5 different colors. Ive seen whitish ones, greens (MINE), blue and a couple other ones.. they also have BI-COLOR's too.. although photosynthetic they readily feed as well.. they one that arrived yesterday opened up and ate by night time.
