In my experience, the two are very different colors. The colt being a tan/brown color and the kenya tree being a greyish/redish color. Another thing is the thickness of it. The colt seems to grow a much broader base while the kenya tree acted more like a tree. semi-thin until you get up to the branches. It looks more like a tree imo. Colt coral seemed to have many more polyps as well.

Also, kenya trees dropped babies for me like it was a rabbit. That's the reason I got rid of the thing. Drove me nuts.

Here's the best pictures I could find online.

then i have 2 different kinds of kenya trees.

2 i got from JX.
another i bought. and that one is multiplying like crazy.

[JxMetal]

what you got from me was a kenya. Is yours dropping babies? I find it best to put it in a VERY low current.

 

[frenchie]

got the kenya and got little ones popping up everywhere

 

[frenchie]

i'll trade ya kenya for colt

 

[Dert42]

no, that one has never dropped babies. the other one i have is very different. it's more bush like.
