Leather ID!

[Cervial]

I've got photos with polyps extended and without. It's from a reef tank I maintain at work that's about 16yrs old. No one knows what they are and I can't seem to find any similar coral for sale! Completely photosynthetic. Survives in high Nitrate and phosphate and in super low. In the former it has the retracted polyps and the fully extended ones in the latter.

Would love to know what it is! It is not a typical nepthea or Sinularia coral. If you think it is please show me a link or photo to one that matches the color shape!

I cannot see your photos

Odd. It will not let me post them. Not in a reply or in an edit.

Thoes are leather corals very common? Nothing spectacular

Nepthea coral

Yes

Then please direct me to a link of this exact type! Unlike a lot of Sinularia and nepthea I've seen the polyps only grow on the tips and it has a light bluish green coloration and the branches remain "stubby".

Do you mind sharing a photo and where you got it from? I can't find it anywhere!

I think that might be it! Closest thing to it, at least.

Looks like it will grow into neon green......nice.
