got this nice little coral but I dont have the name

[Drewbie]

Can you help?

No ones got a name for this?

Not sure what it is, but it doesn't look happy. Is it truly white, or is the picture just playing tricks on my eyes? And are those polyps I see sticking out, or is it just the skeleton. White coral = bleached coral = stressed coral. Without closer pictures, my range of guesses would be something like a pocilipora, acropora, stylophora (maybe)... something along those lines.

and its not white its more light pinkish/purple

its been in the tank one day.

Oh... well... asking the store is usually a much better option, when available!

It actually looks like a carnation to me. I'm no expert by any means, but bought one that was mis-labeled when I first started my tank.
