Hi, we bought a coral a few weeks ago and were told it was a frammer, but now someone has said that it's a hammer - so what do you think, hammer or frammer? Pictures are of it when we first got it (three weeks ago) and now. In case you don't know, a frammer is a frogspawn-hammer hybrid https://reefbuilders.com/2019/02/12/have-you-ever-seen-a-frammer-fimbriaphyllia/

There are a few single stalks with 3 heads/tips. Does that make it a frammer? I don't know these things. I'm old school.

The tips are somewhat rounded off which is usually seen in Hammers. However some of the “branches” have several tips which are more often seen in Frogspawns and Octospawns. But there’s only one of those two hybridised with Hammers which is the Frogspawn. If I had to guess then you have a beautiful Frammer :)
