I found this little frag in the back of my tank. I’ve had neither of these corals, but I assume it is going to be one of them just form its structure leaning towards devils hand.

I'm leaning on the side of devil's hand too, but I'm not 100% sure. Nice coral though!
 
I think I may have to give it more time unless somone else knows a forsure way of seeing a visual difference. I am seeing Toadstools and Devils Hands have that exact same green bumpy texture underneath. The odd shape of the "cap" makes me think Devils Hand though.
 
Looks like a devils hand frag - I've raised hundreds of them in my tank from micro to massive. With the right conditions, they will take over your tank if you let them.
