I was given this frag as a freebie when I had ordered Zoanthid's about a year and a half ago. There was never any ID. I do know that it is not a Kenyan tree because I have Kenyan trees and it is very different. This hangs you predominantly white base with pinkish polyps on the end. Kind of reminds me of cauliflower.
Anyone have a clue what it is?

Thank you! It grows like a weed. It's pretty but it's more invasive that my Kenya or GSP. Not convinced that I want to carry it over to my new tank just yet.

Looks like either a carnation coral or finger leather coral

Yes - it can be prolific and hard to remove, as it will grow from just traces left on a rock and it spreads as bits of it are broken off and float around.
