Hey Everyone,

I picked this frag up a couple of months ago and have no idea what it is.

The picture does it no justice. It is an intense nuke green, kinda like those Candy Cane corals everyone is selling right now. Even brighter under actinic.
It is an encrusting coral and has grown some and is starting to encrust the plug a bit.

Any ideas?

Wow!!!

You guys hit the nail on the head. I did a search and looked at some pics and it is definitely Hydno.

It looks most like Hydnophora bonsai.

Thanks for the help guys.
