Dual-colour polyps?

[RAV-65]

Hi all,

juz acquired an acro with a greenish body but the polyps at the tip is blue in colour while the polyps at the lower half of the body is green in colour... Is that possible??

Is there any names for such SPS?

PMs? Pre XXXXXXX Syndrome?

I think it's a rosaria but the blue polyps quite difficult to maintain IMO. It will eventually lose it's blue in our tank. I could be wrong and it could turn out to be a super piece.

Haiyo, PURPLE MONSTER lah!!

Those are not PM aka Purple Monster. PM is all purple (even under low light) with stubby, rounded coralites and distinct white polyp.

Those that Jim posted is Hoeksemai, very much sought after in RC. It's part of the staghorn family. Someone in RC did ID the purple pieces from PR shipment as Hoek, so it is really a gem.

Hehe..congrats. You can probably "suan" those guys at RC now.

Anyway, the name sounds nice too
