What is this? Big brainy looking thing ... ?

Yeah, well, I did the "point and purchase" thing again ... what is it? It's about 4" round, green-ish - looked real healthy when I got it, but now it's starting to turn brown on one side. Maybe my lights? I just moved it from my 60g to the small nano with the Met. Hal. lamps ... maybe that'll help. My buddy thought it might be a Pineapple Caulastrea - ?

I would put it in lower light for now . i have a few favia/brains and they do not like light,when they are in too much they do that browning out thing you mentioned. Anyone Else ?

Those really light areas look bleached to me. I wonder what color it is supposed to be... the color at the top looks more natural. I would second that they really don't like a ton of light.

Yikes, well I better move it OUT of the nano then. Might take it for a ride over to that hospital tank in East Hanover On FishCam now, #5. http://www.sandeeland.com/FishCam
