Torch, frogspawn, or hammer?

[PfenWendt]

So i have a torch in my tank that is the same coloration, except the...base? is more green than pink, so im not sure if this is a torch or something else. Looking around on liveaquaria it almost looks like a frogspawn, http://www.liveaquaria.com/product/prod_display.cfm?c=597+321+519&pcatid=519

not sure if the image above worked... Also, if it helps it its on a branch looking thing with 2 others on other places, they aren't as big which is also why i think it may be a branching hammer...

There's branching hammer, branching frog, which refers to the skeletal characteristics, as opposed to 'wall': anything with a fork in the tentacle is a frog------but! if parked next to each other, touching, a hammer can develop characteristics of the adjacent coral (they're cousins)---and lose them later.

So your best guess is a frogspawn then?

Just wanted to add I have a green torch with multiple "forks" within it's polyps.

Wait and see if his polyps fill up with water and extend more.

so just a bit of an update on this one, and hoping to get an ID haha, its grown a bit more so it may be easier to tell, i am starting to lean towards frogspawn myself i think...

Yea definitely not a hammer, but torch or frogspawn...

Kind of looks like a frogspawn I have, so i'm guessing frogspawn, not torch.
Definitely not hammer.

Way to throw a complete other kind in there haha, it looks very similar to marks frogspawn so im going to assume its that for now, when it grows out a bit more ill re look at it.

I wonder if there's a way to display those imgur pictures in thread and not have them come out as big as a house?
Was going to do a side by side picture comparison but yours came out way too massive.
Ours really do look almost the same, yours looks a bit nicer.
Mine is recovering from being bleached, only been in my tank a couple weeks.

Haha ive never really understood the adding pictures to post and being normal sized. They do look very similar though
