I am still somewhat new back to this hobby. My tank is 3 months old now : ) When I bought most of my livestock, I did it in two large batches. I put in quite a few corals each time. Doing that made me miss learning the names of several of the softie in my tank. Now I am trying to play catch up. The guy in the pic below is doing awesome in my tank. He has doubled in size since I got him.

what is his name? And what color is he supposed to be. Mine stays between a yellow color and a pink color...ish. Sometimes hard to tell when the lights are blue.

The leather is a "finger leather", I would hazard a guess at Lobophytum spp.
I just googled this one too. I think this one might be it. The one I saw using “Lobophytum” drove me to a pic that looked just like mine https called “Devils Hand Leather coral”

thoughts?
