So I've been looking for some real green nepthea to add to the softie collection as the stuff that's been fragged and passed around or for sale are actually a sinularias. This week I finally found it. A very nice piece too. The colour is a nice deep blue/green. The pics don't do it justice. I doubt it's from Palau but it's a really nice piece.
The other softie I found at the same place. Bright white, not too many polyps but gets HUGE. Hoping someone here can ID it. It doesn't seem to respond to RN OF or RF but it might still be settling in. Initially, It only inflated while the lights were on but now stays inflated 'round the clock. The texture is smooth but not slimy and the body is very pliable with none of the internal sclerites (sp?) evident. Anyone with a guess?
