Picked this up from LFS last week it's in a nice spot and is opening well. I was told it was Sinurlia coral but I am leaning more towards it being Nepthea as it has a chunky "trunk". I pretty sure it's not a Kenya tree. I apologise for the picture, my phone doesn't take good pics as they get blued out. I have asked for orange filter for Xmas lol.

Are you able to get a photo from the side with either the lights turned off on your tank or with only white lights on? It would help make the photo clearer
 
Here you go. Thank you

I’m leaning more toward Colt coral, but there are different species which look alike. Here’s my Nepthea.
