I looks like one my LFS has and called it like a firecracker coral. it looks like a sun coral almost, but I know that its not.

Nope not a hammer or dendro. This one reaches about 4" wide.
By the way, I never said I don't know what it is.

Maybe this pic will help.

I don't know, but I think my wife spent $12 on that at the sushi place last night. She said it tasted great!

Jerthunter, yep it's a deep-water coral from the Pacific.
I just picked this guy up today from a local shop. Another rare LPS to cross off my list. :joy:
