I think this is either a Lobo or an Acan...can someone ID it for me?

Looks like a weird mix between a trumpet or candy cane coral and an acan.
I would probably guess a variant of one of the former.
 
Looks like a lobo. A pretty happy lobo. :)

How long have you had it?
 
Since Friday. I went in tonight and it was in inverted night mode - had those clear pyramidal shaped tentacles out, the ones that are about 1/4" long. Same as the Candy Cane and the War Coral at night. Pretty sweet looking, I should have taken another pic.
 
Any one have a closer ID? I thought a Lobo was more tightly grouped, at least that's the pics I see online. I think it looks more like this Candy Cane in the same tank:
