Soft Coral Identification

[Mr. Chase]

Hey guys, trying to identify this beauty. I believe it's litophyton arboreum but not 100% sure. Any soft coral experts out there who know what it is? Thanks. Would love more if you have it haha.

I believe I have acquired a specimen of the same coral.
"Broccoli Coral"

Is it a NPS?

It was mounted sideways at the LFS and looked happy, so I decided to dangle it from an overhang. (Not permanently yet, until I determine if that is how they are naturally found.)

Nope, they aren't danglers. Now that it's anchored on the rock, it's oriented upright.

This thing has grown immensely.
Reminds me of a colt coral I kept decades ago.

Think it's about time for a trim!
