Cristata?

They look like Cristata torches or branching hammers. Do the tentacles extend any further?

Looks very much like what's shown in this reef builders:

That's the extent of the tentacle extension. It was sold to me as a pink hammer, but I'm not sure it's either pink nor hammer.

I can see where the mix up might be, I'm leaning more towards cristata the longer I stare... I typically think of hammers as having less of a round tip and more "hammer" like lol... all kidding aside I think of a branching hammer to look like this:

Yes I’m thinking cristata

Can you see the ‘ridged’ skeleton structure between the polyps? I believe that is a signature for being a cristata.

If you really want a hammer, frag the heads of that cristata, sell them and buy that pink hammer :)

Skeleton is hard to see but I think its there.
