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
Red legs, yellow eyes, and the best algae eating hermit for a reef because it mostly leaves snails alone. Mostly. Drop a few empty shells in the tank so it has somewhere to upgrade instead of evicting a trochus.
