Is this a Polliciopora (cauliflower coral)?

[josh582]

Hi, just wondering weather anybody could tell me if the picture below is a Polliciopora (cauliflower coral) or not? It was sold to me as a softy but upon further investigation I'm not sure if it is or not! Apologies for the low quality picture, was quickly taken off my iPhone, will get a better picture soon. Any help will be greatly appreciated, thanks

Looks like a leather coral to me. Is it hard or soft?

Its a stylophora - definitely not a soft coral

If you see the tips that has no PE it looks like a soft coral. Maybe Sinularia or something. Doesn't look like Stylo to me.

It's definately Sinularia sp. Soft coral.

It was sold to him as a "SOFTY". Not sure you can confuse that. It's either hard or soft.

if it's a softy, then it's definitely a sinularia (finger leather)

I would actually say it's a Lobophytum sp.
