    Was at my favorite LFS (40 minute drive) Eco Reef in Venice Florida. Owner Chet showed me a 1 of a kind frogspawn that he has had for years that morphed under his leds. Look at normal frogspawn which have split polyps and each tip is white.

    Really just beautiful. If you got big pockets.. and I mean big he is selling it.

    So I assume no one else has seen this or would have chimed in?

    I have one about the same color. The difference is the one you are showing seems swollen. I'll put up a pic tomorrow. Not sure if the swelling is a good thing or if mine is anorexic.

    Chris, it looks to me like a browned out Euphyllia Divisa. I am not picking up on the orange you mentioned. I had a coral exactly like this in my 72 years ago, and I have seen several like it since. Maybe I am missing something, but it just looks like a run of the mill E.divisa (grape).

    Could be Whisky I just have never seen 1. The LFS has it.
    All I know is I thought it looked really cool.
