all white hammer coral

[birdmandan]

I've seen one at a LFS but they said they had just found it under the frag rack, hence the bleach. It looks just like the one in your picture.

These appear to be more clear than white. I could only see the pics on my phone so not the best or biggest.

i've got a small mother colony .. started with 2 heads. now I'm up to 5 .
When I first got the Hammer ( branching ) It looked bleached to me . So I picked it up cheap from a LFS. Its been almost 1 yr now. I have had this piece Down Low , Mid Tank & up High . It never changes color months at a time . You can see a very slight hint of lavender tips.
It seem to be a slow grower , But Very Hardy . I had a bad overdose which killed 90% of my Euphyllias , But this survived. I'll Try to get a decent Pick to post .

The tips look like my cristata does not quite full hammer shape.

My thoughts exactly.

Sorry to say guys. This is not a torch

Torch coral is E glabrescens.

Cristata (Grape coral) grows on the same skeletal type base as a branching hammer. Visually the main difference outwardly is the hammer shape at the tips is less pronounced. Also the colours are typically different to hammers featuring some with clear and white pigments. I have a brownish one but tips are white. On the link i posted above you can see some variants from AIMS.
