Representative Palythoaphoto — a dedicated image of this exact morph isn't available yet.

A button polyp with bold mottled coloration, sold by various shops as both a paly and a zoa.

📜 Backstory

Traded by shops including Top Shelf Aquatics, Unique Corals and Deep Blue Aquarium (the latter listing it as a 'Butt Muncher Paly'). It is a collector button polyp sold per-polyp; the original source is debated.

Keeper tips for this variant

Treat like other button polyps: moderate light, low-to-medium flow, and a stable spot. If the skirts shorten, the flow may be too strong or too direct.
