Ive had this coral for a few months now and it is doing quite well, infact i have fraged it a few times.... It is a hard coral and i was told it was a Duncanopsammia axifuga but it just dosent look like the pics i see...... it dosent have mouths and isnt isnt shaped in round sections. I am refering to the green one

Looks like a shroom, but best way is a picture of it closed. Sometimes when they are open the tenticles covers it up and it is hard to tell what it is

Those tentacles are too long for a hydno, I'd say some type of crazy looking elegance or something. Definitely not a shroom or galaxia.
