Some yellow colony polyps and a shell covered in green mushrooms.
The shell has about 10 mushrooms on it.
Haven't counted the yellows on the rock.

The Sun Corals are non-photosynthetic and really need to be fed daily. It is a chore to get each polyp some food but very enjoyable as more baby polyps appear. Suggest feeding the fish first so the fish do not steal all the food. What do I feed mine?
