I'm 99 percent sure it is a Eleutherobia. 1% chance it us a Paraminabea. I need to see the polyps out in a day or so. Either way very cool.

The right side up gorg, or the upside down yellow cool nps coral? I am betting the upside down one.

Sweet piece!

What makes you 99% sure it is Elutherobia vs Minabea Alderslade?

Hi Pat, the upside down nod for sure. The gorg is a diodigorga.

Well I can't be 100 percent sure but it looks like the pictures and the polyps stick out 1/2 from the coral. Not in this picture but I have seen them.

Well I can't be 100 percent sure but it looks like the pictures and the polyps stick out 1/2 an inch from the coral. Not in this picture but I have seen them. In a Minabea the polyps are tight to the coral. Rumor mill has it you might have some yellow ones also? Your red ones are nice looking.
