Need an ID

Not sure what this is. It started growing a couple of months ago from a rock that has been in my tank for about 7 months. It finally has gotten big enough for me to get a decent picture of. I'm thinking Birds Nest but not sure. The larger one is about the size of a pencil eraser.

Looks like a galaxea coral to me.

At night does it have long sweeping tentacles? If so be careful how close it gets within other corals. They tend to not get along with SPS.

I have not seen any sweepers coming off it at night and it's next to some zoas but I haven't seen either coral react to the other.

I'll get a picture of the one growing on out frag rack right now .

 

[Diamond1]

Very cool! I have it under t5s and it seems to like the light just fine. Will the zoas next to it bother it? Or can it hold it's own against them.

 

[Rob&Gab]

I think the pocci will hold it's own . If anything might sting the zoas. If you see anythin just clip it off and out it somewhere to mgrow out. Keep us updated please! Love pop up things lol.
