[bigbill]

this was sold to me as a lobo ages ago about to sell a frag and have been told that it is not just want to sell it bye its proper name ty

[Jarred1]

It looks like a acanthophyllia deshayesiana, aka meat coral.

[Skyhigh]

Its a lobo..

[jimsflies]

Its hard to tell with a single poly like that has. I would say it is not a acanthophillia or Bali Scoly...Here are some potential Lobos...in the order I think is mostly likely:


Lobophyllia robusta ..(look at photo at the bottom)
Lobophyllia flabelliformis
Lobophyllia hemprichii
Lobophyllia hataii

or possibly a Symphyllia:
Symphyllia agaricia

The texture is off for it to be a meat coral

[Jarred1]

It looked very similar to this, and is why I called it what I did. The only difference I noticed was the way the mouths looked.

[mallorieGgator]

Yeah, it looks similar to meat coral except meat coral is usually more puffy and has a slightly different texture.

I see what your saying, thank you for pointing it out.

I have seen corals labeled as lobos that have looked like this! I will go with lobo for 500.

Heres some better pics to help out- I just called mine a Lobo.
