    I went to a some-what local fish store I had never been to before (I was picking up the cichlids they ordered for me). They also have slatwater fish and coral so I was so excited because my 12 gal is mostly empty righ now.:(

    I was so disapointed, their main tank sprung a leak and they had to empty it so they didn't really have anything.:angry: I did pick up a GSP for 5$ though;D

    The pictures color is a little off, the center of the polyp is bright green. It hasn't fully opened yet, but when it does it should look really nice.

    Well I'm not sure about that, but it will cover the whole rock. I don't like my coral to grow crazy all over the place. I try to keep them to specific areas, but it doesn't work with mushrooms.:)

    I just got a 1" frag from e-bay for 7$. It came off the plug so I tried to glue it to a tonga branch. It only had about 5 polyps open, now I can only see like 3 polyps and they haven't opened since I glued them. So I was excited to get this one. They are one ofmy favorite. If the one from e-bay comes back, that's good too because they are two different kinds.:)

    We usually give new members of our reef club a free plug of the stuff...I cant imagine paying for GSP.

    The photo kinda looks like daisy polyps to me and not GSP. The "petals" don't look right for GSP.
