HMMMMM...It seems like the "indents" in Mattz are a little more defined (or deep) But we may be getting close....
I just know I want one LOL......

 

[mattzhawk]

That's me I've looked at pictures and looked at pictures and when I think i'm getting close I end up with nothing and the same question, What is it? The lfs I got it from is closed now but they did not have a clue when i bought it. Hey looks like I have a super rare coral lol

 

[mattzhawk]

Check out the horn coral picture on the dr's site that looks like it but all the rest show the horn coral as a branching coral so i dunno
search: Hydnophora exesa ???????? maybe
