It's 7 inches across at least.

There was a corner of it that had Palythoas I broke that corner off. There were vermatids in the tank, zero signs of any aptasia during entire brake down.

So free to any supporting member based on the following 2 points.

1.) I can't say with any confidence this doesn't have any other Palythoas or other pests that I could have over looked during my careful examnation. So understand the potential palytoxin risk.

2.) Your getting this for free please don’t be the person that sees this as a opportunity to profit now or in the future. You get it free if you decide you don't want it later I ask that you give it away for free or dbtc it. Don't sale it.

The female is almost 4 inches biggest of that type I've ever seen. Other is a black ice i believe.

I have my favorite pair of huge maroons, a pair of golden nuggets, and a black ice pair. So don't really want to aim for a 4th pair at this point.

It's definitely alive I saw the polyps extending on it but could possible use time in a tank with stable parameters. The tank wasn't maintainted by a reefer for the last 2-3 months or so. Only by the home owner that just feed the fish and added ro water.

At all? I see a few sprinkles of life at best. Are you seeing a moderately healthy colony here? If so, man I really need to go to the optometrist

It’s not dead any of it, no recession has a bleached like apperance, yet polyps were extended over the whole thing when I added it to the temporary tank. I think it will color back up with stable numbers/ lighting.

No water changes or anything else was done on the tank for months. I don't even think the skimmer was running.

It still has the colors and patterns on it just faded out. I don't think it’s at risk of dying in any maintained tank. Staying in the tank conditions it was in everything alive was at risk.

Thought I was looking at mostly skeleton, but if it’s just a bleached appearance but the tissues still there makes sense. My bad.

Should be a nice piece if someone can help it recover
