    I think you may be right, except the white is actually pinkish, and it has green polyps that are growing.. or they are green under the led moonlight. It has like.. spots.

    3rd up from the bottom looks like it could be a green stylophora...kinda hard to tell sometimes between birdsnest, stylo's and birds or paradise.

    it's still a stump, so it is kind of hard to make it out really well, but it looks different than the other birdsnest.

    How did you differentiate the hammerhead from the frogspawn? I thought frogspawn because it has a green tint (not in the picture) on the heads of the tubes.

    Frogspawns are a different color IMO for one, and they have more then one different polyp..Like the frogspawn has more polyps? on one tentacle? not sure of the correct names.

    Here is a frogspawn

    See the difference in polyp shape?
