    Thanks, I have frags that put out new heads in a matter of weeks. Just wish everyone wasn't so far away so that shipping wouldn't be 50$ lol

    I know its a tubastrea, but no idea what species as IDing is impossible. Some say it could even be a dendro, that's how hard it is to differentiate. Just a random, branching tubastrea sp. The only similar one I have seen was sitting right next to this one at the LFS for 45$. My LFS gets some pretty wild sun coral colonies every now and then. Once saw a branching one that was growing like a staghorn, about 8" long and 6" wide with skinny branches. only 50$ should've gotten that one ::)
