I think this is the right place for this question. What coral is over this guys left shoulder? It's the really big green one with purple tips. That thing looks pretty neat.

At 5:14 there is a close shot of it with a clownfish swimming around in the coral.

Anemone?

Either frogspawn or hammer, but I'm leaning toward a frogspawn.

Magnifica/Ritteri anemone.

Now I'm really confused.

I would say anemone. looks as thought the tissue is laying alomg the contours of the rock. Where as a hammer/frogspawn would be growing up and off the rock as its base grows.

 

[FNDsalt]

I would say anemone, as it looks like the tissue is laying across the contours of the LR. Where a hammer/frogspawn will grow up and off the rock as its base/branches get larger.

Well, then in that case, I'll probably wait to buy one until I'm a little more experienced.

Thanks for the ID.

greech is 100% right Magnifica/Ritteri anemone it is a very nice one.

It's absolutely gorgeous. I wanted one when I thought it was an easier to keep LPS. But I'm steering clear of anything not considered "beginner" for at least the next 6 months to a year.
