Orange Hammer Coral

[Rickyrooz1]

I've never seen an Orange Hammer Coral before, is this real or photoshopped?

It is real.I have seen one in a fish store before.They are just a little rarer.

How orange is it? A hint of orange or very orange?

I don't wanna sound skeptic but is that really what one would consider an orange hammer coral? Doesn't it seem like some people are reaaalllly reaching to pull out colours?

There is another thread about blue/teal hammer coral which has been debating colour.

I saw Live Aquaria had two in their Diver's Den last week for $89.99.

The one that my fish store had in was a pretty dark orange.You could even tell it was orange with the lights off.But every one is going to look different because of the different lighting that each one is under.<a href=showthread.php?s=&postid=11318704#post11318704 target=_blank>Originally posted</a> by Rickyrooz1

Agree, also one mans brown is anothers red!

[Scythanith]

Haahaa, so true, beauty is in the eye of the beholder! Those aussie gold hammers are quite neat!

None of those really looks orange to me. I'd say they look more tan.

Of course, a 4-5" wall hammer probably isn't cheap anyway.
