base = black/red??

polyps = yellow

I bought this from the LFS fresh out of the bag, polyps were in full bloom. Figured it'd die there or in my tank. fed it with reefroids last night and it seemed to be healthy..

Photosynthetic or not?

Thanks

Looks like NPS. Either Dichotella or Menella sp.

Hello

The Dichotella gemmacea is at the base also yellow. On the image to see a Menella sp.
