Well, first off let me post the original pic I posted a few weeks ago. At that time this hitchiker was ID'd as a baby plate coral.
Well, after a few weeks I'm still not convinced thats what it is. Here are a couple pics I took tonight.
First, the underside with the flesh pulled in:
Now, the underside with the flesh extended:
Top view with flesh extended. Note the lighter brown inner ring. That is where the skeleton ends. The rest is flesh extension:
Just looks to me like there is too much flesh extension, and different skeleton shape for a plate, but what are everyone's thoughts??
