Can someone ID this?

Hi,

I got this at my LFS where it was labled "Zooanthid Coral". I havent seent it with its polyps out, if thats what those things on it really are. I've never seen zoo's that looked like this so I have no clue as to what it really could be, there for where to place it according to light and current. Thanks for the help

[GOLDMAROON]

THATS TURBINARIA FOR SURE aka pagoda/scroll coral

 

[trottman]

it just looks like an unopened gsp frag

 

[akrimmel]

i was thinking GSP as well.

I'd vote GSP too.

I don't think GSP would stand up like that by itself.
I would guess a Turbinaria frag

I will say it is a Tubinaria....You can see where the corallites are(large bumps) from the color though could it also be dyed?

yes some kind of Tubinaria.
Has it opened yet?
