Coral ID... ?

[insanefishguy]

Okay, so I have had this little bugger for a while and nobody as been able to ID it. I know that it is not photosynthetic. It really opens up under my actinics. It eats like there's no tomorrow. It could possibly be in the dendrophylia family. Anyone have an actual name?

Thanks Hormigaquatica. I saw your post. I believe that we both have phyllangia americana. It is one of my favorite corals. I have to admit though, that as much as I wanted to know what it is, I am a little disappointed to havve solved the mystery corals name. haha

Haha, yeah, I know what you mean. Im still happy to know exactly what Ive got so I have a better idea of its requirements/preferences
