Coral ID

Hi I just purchased a coral and I'm not really sure what it is. The fish store owner said it was a green finger leather but when we went and looked at the chart of prices/pictures on the tank and he saw that it would only be 29.99 he told me that wasnt it and that it wasnt on the chart. I really wanted it so I paid the 39.99 he charged me. Here are two pics of it. It has a yellow/green color to it and sorry that the pics are blurry, I've never been able to get good pics of my tank.

Looks like some kind of finger leather or "colt". Possibly, a Sinularia or Cladiella species. Off chance that it could be a Capnella (kenya tree) but it seems kind of unlikely from the photos but they are blurry. Anybody else?

Looks like my green finger/sinularia, mine has a flouresent green tent to the stalks when its sort off not fully opened but more golden color bscause thats the color of the feeder polyps, Hard to explain.

Just to be sure cause fmelindy is right that the pics a little blured and the lighting is weird.
This is kenya/ Capnella. You tell us what it is.

Ya it looks like the green finger. When I just have my actinic lights on it glows a flourecent green/yellow. Thanks for the help.
