I clean tropical fish tanks for a living and that coral is used in many of my tanks cause of the nice red color...the name i forgot pipe something...It sells 4 around $15 -$35 depends on the size.

Thats an amazing find there ,and a good " What the hell " story .Reminds me of a story about 4 years ago about a guy who was metal detecting out that way and found a 4lb Gold rock , nugget just understates the size of it ,maybe you'll find Moses CD collection on your next run ,Good job on the coral find

fossil coral
Its a fossilized coral.Find some dilute hydrocloric acid and put a drop or two in a damaged section.If it fizzes it is actual coral.if it doesn't the actual coral has been replaced by other minerals.
Can you tell me exactly(long ,lat)where you got it?I promise to catch and release all rocks collected. |
