Now Those are super coolAnother coral I would love to see in the hobby are Micromussa multipunctata. They are very rare in the wild, and are poorly documented. They have a pretty narrow distribution in the coral triangle, being mostly a Malay-Philipine endemic. M. multipuncta differ from other Micromussa in that they are plocoid instead of cerioid. In situ, this is characterized by having sediment deposited in between their polyps, visible when the coenosarc is retracted.
