Does anyone know what this is

[hanktank]

I had to post it again just to see if anyone can tell what it is know .I got it from petco about two weeks ago it looked like this.

And in the second pic is how it looks now

Does it have a skeleton? Is it a soft coral? The polyp I see looks like a leather coral.

 

[hanktank]

It's definitely a softie no skeleton

 

[jedimasterben]

Ok, then it is more than likely a Sarcophyton leather. Could also be Lobophytum or Sinularia.

I was told it was an elephant ear but I don't see the resemblance

 

[davescrews]

Cespitularia sp.

 

[jedimasterben]

Cespitularia sp.

The shape of the polyps is wrong for it to be Cespitularia.

 

[hanktank]

I see the polyps look identical to a toad stool leather

 

[quatro]

Cabbage coral

 

[Reefing Madness]

Possibly an Elephant Ear, just to small to correctly ID the thing right now.

 

[Patwa]

might be dampia sp.

Reefbuilders article on them:

Dampia pocilloporaeformis is a soft coral that prefers the company of SPS

 

[Lazys Coral House]

Cespitularia sp.

I think so as well but will likely take a few more weeks of growth to be sure.
