Sh0ckbyte is moving on up!

I've seen this b4 in one of my Japanese "sea creatures" books. The white tips were very distinctive in all the pictures they had, and it looks like that's what you've got here. If it's GSP, I'll say so after I get home to look this up, if it's something else, I'll google it to find pics for everyone. I do believe it's the same family as good ol star polyps though.

I have something like that but is nowhere near that big! still looks like a little volcano, but I know it wasn't there when I first got the rocks. it may not be the same thing though

The white portion of the polyps are shaped like X-mas trees. Kind of like a cartoon rendering. It does resemble a volcano. I've been watching these things grow for a while. The GSP's in the picture with it have only been there for a month. Not to mention, mine have never spread since I've owned them. One of the first corals I bought (hoping it would spread like they say).
