Question Only - high dollar Tenius

[Tom Blevins]

Hi All,


Last night I was on Ebay and watching a very nice Acro which I feel it sold at the right price my
question is because I don't know, is the Trophy Wife Rainbow Tenius pictured the same as the home
wrecker picture ? here is the pic of it.

Sure looks close. The homewreckers I've seen pics of mostly had more of a greenish polyp color to them. Maybe it's just one that looks slightly different so it got a different name

I found a pic of the home wrecker with orangish polyps?

ok, I guess this is a very quite topic because of the hundreds of dollars n differences in each piece, tussah to the individual
who won the Ebay piece which was very nice!

Tough to tell from the pics. They could both be same species of coral and still have different coloration...differences could be subtle or pronounced, but you wouldn't know for sure unless you see them both (at least that's my experience). I have seen the homewrecker in person on multiple occasions and it truly is just like the pics JF posts (and I was a skeptic before I saw it in person), but without seeing this piece in person, it's impossible to say for sure.

You could potentially see similarities in pictures, but saying they're "the same" is pretty much impossible to do based only on pics.

I purchased mine from JF, it has green polyps and a lot of PE, acclimating now. I must say it was very bright even in the bag, shipped in a lot of water. Looks like the pictures that he posts.
