K kay-bee Gambusia MFK Member May 21, 2006 254 4 16 Tampa, FL Jun 6, 2008 #173 Not a zoanthid colony. Here's another clue: it's a stony coral, not a soft coral.

Since no one identified that coral, I'll post pic of something different (if that is the correct protocol):

K kay-bee Gambusia MFK Member May 21, 2006 254 4 16 Tampa, FL Jun 6, 2008 #178 Schaadrak, Tubastraea is correct (it's either t. diaphana or t. micrantha, one of the two). Your turn!
