I was told it was an sps frag... they had the mother coral there and the guy told me what it was called but I didn't remember by the time I got home. I will post a hopefully better picture tomorrow.

Actually I havn't seen one for a while but that could be a brown hydnophora. When you touched the coral was it hard or fleshy and soft?

I can't get a better picture, it seems hard but I don't want to hurt it. In real life the 'fur' is a greenish color and they don't go in... this little thing has me confused... I think it is happy at least...

Is it soft, bendable, reddish in color....does it seem to quiet itself during the daytime, and then seem to perk up and appear to be stronger and happier in the night? I'm curious because I have a "Red Chili" that reminds me a bit of what you have there. Just a thought!
