This came on my LR. I don't know what it is. I'm new and google doesn't know what I'm talking about when I try to describe it. In fact I don't know what a lot of things are on my LR. It's fun to see things come alive though.

Pretty sure that is not Grandis based on it's size compared to the macro in the background. Some kind of Paly for sure but not enough color to say which one

It looks like it's been in the dark, or buried in the sand, or under the overturned rock, so the color has faded. Give that Palythoa (or large Zoanthid) several weeks in brighter light to see what color it will become. BTW, nice macroalgae; Caulerpa and Chaetomorpha.

Aloha,

Mark, 

You have a good eye. That little guy was buried under a pile of LR in my sump. I've got it out under my lights now. 

Thanks for replying.
