Unknown Soft Coral

[MsBeanCtr]

I picked this coral up from the lfs a week or so ago and the clerk couldn't tell me much about it. Does anyone know what the name of this guy is? Also, I am concerned about the lighting on this. The clerk said that it was a low light coral. I only have pc lighting. I've put this coral pretty high up in the tank but would like to move it lower.

Thanks!

Looks like a kenya tree coral. Can you give more detail on your lights? Size?

I have one under PC's and its doing great. (Knock on wood!) I agree that its a kenya tree coral though.

detail on your lights? Size?

I have a coralife pc fixture with two 65 watt Actinic & two 65 watt 10000°K bulbs.

Also, I don't suppose you happen to know what that is growing at the bottom of the coral? I feel like I'm doing the 20 question game here...sorry!

looks like Xenia growing on the bottom to me.

I think the light you have will be fine for both the xenya and the kenya tree.
