Hopefully, Richard will chime in on this one. You might also want to send him a PM with the pictures as well.

Was this recent, meaning CB's got corals again? I think they were in the midst of major renovations last I was there, disppointed to not find much in the way of reef goodies.

No this was when they were selling out before the ren. I got it at the meeting that was in January I think.

If it helps it looks more green and brown in person. The pics make it look kinda blue.

I believe it is a Pectinia species, maybe Pectinia paeonia or Pectinia alcicornis. They are commonly called cabbage corals or antler corals sometimes.

Sorry for the lack of SW inventory everyone. Bare with us, we'll get there. Pretty much everything(tanks, equipment etc.) has been ordered (or reordered) so it shouldn't be too much longer (Knock on wood).
