micromussa ?
hi, guys, is there any absolute way to tell the difference between an acnthastrea lord and micromussa amakusensis ? here is a picture of one that i bought long time ago and im not completely sure what it is, i always thought that is an acan but now with the the very bright colors and the fact that is slightly smaller than the other acans i have im not sure, can anybody tell me what it is, it sound like a question for jendub right ?
thanks guys |

Looks like an "indo" lord to me. I had a small polyped one a while back that was really vibrant, it was one of my favs =)
Love the eyes on that piece! Very cool

thanks
thank you, very kind as always, sorry to bother you but is there a major difference between acans and micros ? something that i can tell right away, the thing is that my LFS received today one of that horribles pieces where thereare a bunch of blastos, candy canes, blastos merlettis etc glued in one rock and it has a little colony ( 6 polyps ) of a really cool acan or micro and they dont know the difference and me neither but for me to buy the piece it makes a lot of difference if is an acan or micro.
thanks again |

You can look here for more accurate ids:

Micros have more angular polyps that are smaller. Also they have a fleshy margin between the polyps that you can see when they get moved. Good luck!
