I have now bought and payed a lot of money for Pectinia's (sp?) from very respectable Etailers and they came in looking NOTHING like the WYSIWYG pictures that were posted. I mean not even close. I was told "wait until they grow out". Wait you posted a pic of the exact coral I would be receiving. Very very frustrating...
 
In the days of digital photography and photoshop, there can be some pretty deceitful images made... I have seen many and have learned what to look for. The most difficult to pick out though is when they use a black background as the oversaturation is not as apparent.

You should post images of what they were advertised as and what they look like in your tank. It is always interesting to see the differences.
