I got my soft coral frag pack and its all great and everything is growing. I know its a leather coral as the name they gave was speckled leather. But i cant find anything on it. Does anyone know what this will look like when its bigger? It does look like its starting to grow larger in specific spots. Possible branching? Sorry for the long post but thanks for any information.

Wow good
I have one of their speckled leathers too. Its growth pattern seems more "encrusting" than anything else. Below is a picture of mine. It started out small like yours and has spread out some over the rocks.

Hard to say from the picture. My guesses would be a colt coral or do a search for " young blushing finger leather" which is a sinularia. Also maybe a cauliflower coral - (Klyxum sp.)
