What is this?
I flipped my lr over the other day and I found this! It looks like a bleached coral but the the closest I can find is maybe a incrusting montipora? Can any one i.d. it for me and let me know what I need to do to take care of it or if it is dead?http://reefcentral.com/gallery/data/...13DSC00106.jpg

PE is polyp extension. Can you see any polyps?

It looks like its spongy but it is hard to the touch! No polyps that I can see but it does look like its something living and not just like an old coral skeleton. It was on the under side of one of the lower rocks but was not this noticeable when I got it from the lfs two months ago! The shrimp that is on it is an adult pep that is like 2.5" long. I have since put this rock on top facing up at the light but I guess if its an sps my 12g nc. stock lighting wont be enough.
Is there any chance it could be a sponge? But would it be hard if it was? |

No but I looked at again and it seems to have a mouth like thing in the middle of it! Also it is like the size of my hand and encrusted on the surface of the rock! What is a christmas tree rock and is it good or bad?
