Strange coral

[c0mf0rt]

My LFS has a coral I'm interested in but can't seem to find any info about...

It's a softie but the type with the calcified spinules in it.... it's got a white stalk and red cauliflower looking things.... It kinds looks like a colt all shriviled up... but with the spinules in the stalk.....

Any ideas???

Most likely Dendronephthya but I'd also google Capnella and Nephthea.

Cheers
