Help ID this leather

[ivang]

I picked up this leather this past weekend. It didn't have any visible polyps. It had a velvet irridescent green color all over under the store's actinics.

It did shed a waxy layer after being put into my tank. I noticed the shedding irritated my big finger leather. It also appears a bit limp.

Any help would be appreciated. I posted in soft corals before noticing a separate ID forum.

Looks like Devils Hand (Lobophytum sp.). With a lot of leathers, polyp extension can be sporadic. They can be tempermental. Don't be alarmed if it starts dropping fingers.
