Sweet pickup from my LFS

[bct15]

Check out this sweet four polyp pickup from my LFS, what do you think it is. These things scream crazy bright. I seen them from across the store when I was checking out to buy some frozen food they keep behind the counter. Im referring to the four polyp frag towards the center of the pictures, my camera sucks and I can't zoom in anymore without it acting crazy (zooming in and out really fast). Pics taken under 250w xm 15k mh using a setting where the camera tries to balance out the blue. (I'm not a photographer so I don't really know what I am doing just trying to take legible pics)

Look like "wannabe" RDPEs or at least a similar polyp?

Hawaiian punch

I have had hawaiin sticky punch and it is not even close, the brightness of the entire polyp, the shade of pink, the green skirt, or the white center. Thanks though.

Thanks, i guess i did good for only a $10 frag. Just out of curiosity which part of the green gives it away. I have seen photos of both and both have green in them.

Wow good steal!!!
maybe it's the pic but it looks green around the mouth, if it has light green and dark stripes in the center then it's a wanna b
real ones have pretty much no green and a lot more pink with less white , it's almost identical to the marshian pe's on coralpedia

and yes they aren't that close to the HI sticky punch that's more of a darker color with just pink pattern

I think it might be the pic, because there is barely any green in the center when looking in person (other than the bright green mouth). It is pretty much a very bright pink with pink speckles in the middle around the mouth and a green skirt and the normal neon green PE mouth. I am going to mess with my camera and see if I can get a better zoomed in shot that depicts how the polyps actually look (not all blued out or super vivid).

Also, I am not looking to sell these things at $50+ a polyp down the road and if I ever sell or trade them it will prolly be as a no-namer or give then my own name. It is just good to have something to compare them to with a description because photographs never do any justice.
