YOU DONT AND I REPEAT YOU DONT WANT THAT IN YOUR TANK.
WARNING WARNING WARNING.
Send it to me and I will keep it in mine.
Sorry I have looked and can't find it but just in case it's bad I'll save you the trouble and I'll take it :D
When you find out then let us know I would like one .
It's very nice

i dont think its a daisy polyp because i have diasy polyps and they are def. different. they look more like clove polyps but i have not seen a green clove polyps b4.
so what do you think it is? i had it for like 2.5 months and i would like to know more about it.

thanks

Could this be a Pagoda coral (Turbinaria)? Good luck with the ID. It looks nice whatever it turns out to be.

definitely not turbinaria. most likely a clavularia sp.
there are many sp. that are yet to be ID'd, and many more that are uncommon. anyhow, that is a beautiful specimen :)

it looks to be in good condition, so why dont YOU tell us what parameters you have it in?
