please help identify this coral
I bought it with a recordia mushroom. I didn’t ask what it was because my daughter loved it and wanted it and I told her we are ONLY getting softies and LPS so I am sure one of the sales reps told her it was one of those. To me it looks like a Zoa genre but the polyps are on tentacles that can be 1-2 cm long. It is pretty.
I always move the corals around to find where they thrive the best. Then and only then do I glue them in.
It’s doing great at bottom with mid light and mid flow.
Here are the pics

If the tentacles are really long, it could be a palythoa (related to zoa). Be careful when fragging because they have palytoxins.
 
Ah. Thank you very much!! I have a few more pics. I’ll upload. I can show the store the pics next time I am there and rhey should confirm.
