I just bought this beautiful coral. It is a bright pink LPS with orange tentacles when the polyps open.The worker at the shop said it was called "Sand Polyps", but I've never heard of that and couldn't find any information about it online. Does anyone know more about this coral, maybe a better name to look under, or what kind of care to give for it? For scale, the colony in the pic below is about 3 inches across.
