Went into my local LFS and saw this bad boy. Sitting at 3" I asked how much? My guy told me the best I can do is $40. I said, I will take it!!!! What do you think?????

I think you got a sweet deal. Looks good!
 
Very good deal! One of my firsts and always a favorite. It's fun to see how much variation they can have as they inflate and deflate. Don't be surprised if it takes on a dome shape now and then. Perfectly normal for large LPS to shape-shift.
 
thanks for the info! when i was running out the door he told me it was a green brain. lol
 
It's a trachyphyllia brain coral. Wellsophyllia, or wellso for short, is an old name for them, but most people still call them that and will know what you mean when you say wellso brain. :)
super cool info! Thank you! this thing is cray. Good day for its purchase cuz today was coral feeding day. I did work on some brine shrimp!
 
I love my brain too! I think I paid about the same...it was about 3-4" at the store. After about a week at home I was shocked to see it fully expand to 6-7" across! Hope yours does the same.
 
At least it got brains............ even if they are open brains ;)
 
Nice Score!
 
Nice. I have its twin brother in my tank. Had mine for about 8 years now.
 
Nice wellso,I feed mine 1/4 in piece of raw shrimp once a week. When my alk gets to low around 6.5 it shrinks up for a few days, I try to keep my alk around 10, but I slack off every now and then.
