I have had this for six months or so wondering what it is. It has a hard skeleton under the mouth. Hope someone can help.

robcropper, I believe its a hidden cup coral. They kind of look like rhizos or dendros a bit. Hormigaquatica showed me pics and I also saw some other pics from another reefer that are just like it. You will find them on live rock sometimes.

I believe they are non photosynthetic, you will need to feed them.

Lets see some other responses.

I agree, it's probably a hidden cup.

About an 1-1/4 inch acrossed. Then there are a few babies.

Took some more pics after feeding...

Very nice, I like the whitish tentacles. Good score. Feed them a few times a week.

Thanks for sharing the pics
