I received this coral frag as a freebie with a fish purchase. There was no identification with the coral. Sorry for the poor quality pics. This is in my 16 gal fluval with reefbrite LED strips.

The color is a light bluish green. I have both the morning (shrunken up) and late afternoon pics.

I've had the coral for a couple of months. It was filling out a little more a few weeks ago. No polyps to speak of. I have finger leathers and this looks nothing like it.

Any ideas? My coral identification skills are basic at this point.

When I google "Colt coral" some of the images look similar.
 
I think you guys are on to something with the sinulara.

I'm going to move this to my bigger tank that has AI 26 LEDs. I don't think it's getting the light it needs in the little tank. My zoas, palys and even acans are doing great in the small tank, but this was looking fuller before. I have a power head and there's pretty good flow in the tank too.

I'll move it and take some more pics.
