to reservation of confirming it apparently it is a question of an Oculina Varicosa, only I have the doubt if the flow must be moderate or high.

Do I know that the light must not be intense and I believe that the T5 have not to of affecting him, they have some experience?

for the time being I have two colonies placed in the top part of the aquarium receiving the flow of a Koralia #4 of intermittent form.

Looks like a branching cyphastrea to me.

Hi buy baff

apparently the cyphastrea presents another type of morphology and in some species they are different.

cyphastrea decadia

Creo que el coral es un Cyphastrea. Es posible que sea un Oculina pero definitivamente no es un Cladocora. Has mirado en Cyphastrea?

I believe that the coral is a Cyphastrea. It is possible that it is an Oculina but definitively it is not a Cladocora. Have you looked in Cyphastrea?

Gracias Genetics, ya he mirado a la cyphastrea y son algo similares, pero al revisar los libros de Eric B. Julian S. y Veron, creo confirmar que si se trata de una Oculina.

(Thanks Genetics, already I have looked at the cyphastrea and they are similar, but on having checked the books of Eric B. Julian S. and Veron, I am thinking about confirming that if it is a question of an Oculina.)
