    This LPS was just an orange dot on the corner of a skeleton when I got it, and now the orange has grown and is getting other colors, and I see 2 more heads popping up. I like it... but I have no idea what it is! Looks kind of like an acan or scoly, but not quite.... Anyone know?

    Ok - thanks. I agree it does look like an acan, but the texture on the flesh of the coral and the look of the skeleton threw me off. The skeleton isn't what I expected an acan skeleton to look like.

    Thanks for the quick replies. Acan it is, and I look forward to seeing it grow out. Is it growing on an acan skeleton? I assume it would have to be, it just isn't what I thought the skeleton would look like.

    It might be an acan skeleton, its hard to tell. Could also be just be a piece that grew over and attached to some other skeleton/rock.
