What you see is what ships
These photos are taken under actinic blue light, which is how the coral looks in a reef tank at night. Under full daylight the colors read warmer and less saturated. This exact piece is the one that ships to you, no substitutions.

About this piece
The one animal that reliably eats aiptasia, sold as the true wurdemanni and not the lookalike that ignores it. Buy three, keep them fed lightly, and give them a week before you judge the results. Honest warning: a hungry one will sometimes pick at a fleshy LPS at night.
