WHOA!!! Of course it looks like I'll have to arm wrestle Anomone for it.
Maybe it will grow fast and you can frag us both one.
I'm like you, I like all the "flower" looking corals.

Right now its pretty small, but i think 2 frags can be arranged if its a fast grower. Gotcha both down

My camera is horrible but I have a very similar one but its a very dark brown. Goes from Tan to Chocolate at times.
Now very similar to yours I always thought them to be TRUE Califlower Colts. I always see so many colts named this or that. They seem to pick up street names daily and become hard to really ID beyond some random Colt sub.
Ill see if I can post a pic of mine for comparison.

Well.....if we mud wrestled and had a live cam, we just might get a few more frags out of it.

I cannot find an ID on the bugger anywhere.......... I will eventually frag it, but its pretty small, frags would be about the width of my pinky finger and 1 inch long. And if i tried to get 3 frags, i wouldn't have any left for myself
And that can't happen
You have some stuff i would love to swap you for, so i will give it alot of TLC (to bad there are no growth hormones for corals) Things usually do well in my tank, nd once its acclaimated, i should see some growth quickly. Remember, patience is required in this hobby
I know it was a trade in so maybe i will dig around in my LFS tank and come up with afew more frags, tomorrow, but i doubt there is any more of them.

I did some searching and so far I've seen some species of Gersemia that sort of resemble that. I don't think that is what it is but it is a starting point. Hmmm, maybe you should have a contest to ID it and the winner gets a frag... Well maybe not but I am interested in IDing so I can find more.
*edit* Ok, after looking a little more I am pretty sure it is something else. Hopefully someone will be able to figure this out.

Well i did a water change, wanted "our"

Ok going on the list of coral I am getting!! They look great! Hopefully someone can figure out what they are. I saw ones just like this at a lfs, but did not want to buy anything from their store because it was dirty and un kept!
