Had it around a year now. Wanna put something different there. About 3-1/2”x 2-1/2” Also have a rainbow nem trying to get them out of my tank I got one. Trying to get the other. Has really nice colors

Lobo or not. Maybe. Maybe not. Still nice. Keep it in its own tank by itself. Nothing else. 30
Nem 2 @ $20 each.

I believe that might be an Acanthastrea pachysepta, not a lobo. I say that because the pachysepta are often confused as peaceful lobos, but they are quite aggressive and will decimate any lobo or meat coral you put next to it.

Always a chance I could be wrong though!

Interesting. You may be right. It was sold to me as a lobo. I don’t know how to tell the difference. It’s been near other coral with no problems. Acans, zoas, and plates. But who knows. Doesn’t really grow and doesn’t have sweepers. Just nice colors

They attack by throwing out mesenterial filaments. Made the mistake of having a small goni frag next to mine. Came in and there was a mound of spaghetti sitting on top of the goni that was D-E-A-D. I had mine close to a cynarina for a while, but it really went for the goni.

Oh, don't say that! I still have mine and LOVE it. There aren't that many meaty corals that have orange rims and brilliant green centers.

Pachysepta have large lobed teeth on each septa that protrude outward, this doesn’t seem to have them. The septa are very uniform in general.
