what is it!

ok
this has stumped me. and two lfs in the area along with any onewhose seen it

it appears to be xenia or anthilia ( the stalk is xenia like in some places but anthilia like in others. ) \

but heres the kicker.. after they grow the polyps are on individual 'stems' 6-10 inches long!!!

any one seens this before

i have 3 frags. one of the fully grown long stalk. but i need to get a bit more flow since it is laying on the rock flat.... ahh well store i work at is getting more vortechs soon.. and i have 2 in a frag tank out side i also have a frag at the lfs i work at
( i bought the coral then fragged it to maximize chance of survival.)
has any one heard of this coral before.. ill try to get picts once mine starts to perk up ( one at the lfs looks perfect tho. just cant get a good pict in the tnak its in)
