Any acan experts out there have any ideas what me, grisha and xylenol actually have?
I've been told and read a million times that they cant be Maxima's because of the colors and that dang greedy Sultan but if they aren't Maxima's, what the heck are they??? |

new update...
i few days ago i put my agent orange ehinata next to baby polyp of this coral.. after a first stress polyp puffed out like normal and rapped around the ehinata.....at this point i sturt worring for the nice AE frag of ehinata..and start waiting for the slime...after three hours - nothing... corals spent atleas 4 hours touching each other with ABSOLUTLY no stress or damage to each other...the first impression after detaching corals was that baby polyp wanted to consume ehinata, but no damage at all ............... IME i know only one wiered chalice which can damage acan ehinata ...i thought this acan is the strongest thing in the tank and it did nothing to this acan |

well...i do understand your point... " there is no such a thing as maxima here in this country"...
in my opinion this coral is very different from maxima in the way it shows it flesh.....but it is not the same coral as ehinata...see for your self pic 1 - our boy and Tyree piece pic 2-some other nice acan ehinatas at 12 o'clock pic 3 the same coral top shot ... i have a shalf with a bunch of micro frags so you cant rerally see the Big Boy but it is there at 11 o'clock let me know what you think man...does it look to you as ehinata? |

and if uyou look at the corals the other guys posted i think it s not hard to see that this is not a lobo....the growth pattern is just different....tho i also get a filling that a lots of advertised maximas is lobos... but it is the ones with the crazy patterns ...

I would agree that it possibly could be some kind of weird lobo although looking at mine in different stages, i think it is very unlikely,imo. I have never seen lobo's that had such a polyp look that mine has or with as many as close together as mine are. I can tell you 99.99% positively that there is no way it is an echinata or sub. No way,imo. I have seen a million and have a bunch and there is no resemblence or similarities whatsoever. Not only size but the polyps are just totally different than any echinata or sub i have ever seen. That pic grisha just posted is just how mine looks and they sure doesnt look like any lobo i have ever seen in person or pics |

I have been searching for something that states how large Echinata and/or sub echinata poylps can get and cannot find anything.
IMO, in the pic above they look like the exact same coral just different size polyps. Even the flesh has the same texture in those pics. This is half the fun of the hobby............trying to figure all these things out keeps us on our toes!!

I have mine right next to a echinata and a sub and the polyps definitely seem different,imo.
