What kind of coral?

[Sharkie]

So the guy at the LFS gave me this for bringing in some of my jellies... strange but whatever! lol worked for me..


i was wondering what they are exactly? he called them a daisy polyp but i know better than that....


this was taken after being in my tank for 5 mins :)

I really love how they look in my tank and seem to be so alive... they open and close and look really pretty :) what are they exactly and what sort of movement should they be in?

Looks like pom-pom xenia to me.
They should be good where you got em.

Not xenia... It's anthelia.

 

[yote]

The polyps of Anthelia always arise directly from a basal encrusting mat,this being the key to genus identity
Xenia has a stalk and branches.
