    I dont even want to say the deal I got on this puppy! Lets just say we paid under 1/4th the cost it would normally run......It is about 2-3 inches diameter and normally goes for 250-300. We did not pay anywhere near this! This picture was just taken after we dipped it........it is much more inflated and happier

    It is a LPS, from australia. It is a scolymia....a fairly easy coral to care for, however tends to be more expensive then many other LPS
