Coral ID- torch, hammer, frogspawn… mutant?!

[partyfow]

Bought this at a local shop.. it was in bad shape and I nursed it back to health. Sold as a hammer, I guess due to the thick tips. Looks more like a short tentacled torch but then one head is splatter colored purple and yellow with nodules on some of the tentacles like frogspawn. Color is also more indicative of a hammer or froggy. Thoughts?

They called it frammer at one point (frogspawn/hammer hybrid). If it’s able to extend a bit more than a hammer, it could be a cristata torch.

I was leaning toward a cristata until I start to see the nodes. But just on the one mutant head

I mean if ya want to mail me a frag i can try to grow it out and see how they compare in a few years :) looks great to me

not a Cristata; the purple-acrosphere-green-stalk coloration is generally more of a Fimbriaphyllia thing. It's a hammer

I like it, whatever it is. Does seem frammer-esque though.
