Check out this beautiful and rare LPS

[basser1]

Hey All, just saw an article about this beautiful and rare LPS coral, Arcohelia Redeviva. It is a non-photosynthetic coral from Australia. This is simply put.... one beautiful coral!! Here's a pic:

Apparently the care is similar as for dendros and duncans and must be target fed to keep it happy. Right now cherry corals has a couple of large colonies for sale for $900 and $1000. However, they do have a couple of smaller frags available at a more affordable price of $100 each.

Here's a write up on them that appeared in the Oct. 2009 issue of Reef Hobbyist magazine:

Super nice color, almost looks icy or frozen.

One of the locals here snatched one up from the diver's den when it went on sale some time back. Very nice looking, I don't have the patience for non-photosynthetic corals though.

Very cool colors for a non-photosynthetic.
