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

Fat purple polyps with green centers that inflate until you cannot see the skeleton. Blastos are shade animals: low light, low flow, and they resent being blasted by a powerhead. One of the few LPS that will not hurt whatever is sitting next to it.
