Hammer?

[Reefo25]

I was given this coral from a friend in the hobby that was shutting down a tank that had been neglected. He said it wasn't doing great and that it was a green hammer. I am just wondering why it doesn't really look that much like a hammer on the tip of the tentacles.

Because its a torch not a hammer.

Could be a Frammer.
Or.. It could just REALLY be unhappy from being in a neglected tank. Some time in a better maintained tank will tell the true tale soon enough

Looks more like a torch

looks like a Euphyllia Parancora to me

Agreed, I would give it a little time to get happy again, and then you'll be able to tell for sure what it is.

nope, they are single eyed

I agree it could have a few tentacles that look like F. paraancora (formerly E. paraancora), if it is indeed severely neglected we'll see how it recovers.

The picture is a little old I will try to get a good one when I get home.
