LPS Ident

[smontanus]

Need a second opinion. Several months ago I purchased a colony of zoos from frags.org, the colony came on a piece of live rock partially covered with a brown/green coating. At first I thought it was a macro or sponge but now I'm pretty sure its an LPS, maybe a False Brain coral. My current estimate is Leptoseris Hawaiiensis. The coloration is golden brown with green-white edges. Take a look at the pic and help me out here. Like all of us I want to know whats in my tank so I can best care for it.

Per Veron, I don't see a similarity http://www2.aims.gov.au/coralsearch/htm ... es/227.htm

However, it sort of looks like Coeloseris or Gardineroseris which he says looks a lot like Pavona.

If you use search on the link above, you can see all the species.

Best of luck,

Roy
