Wouldnt the picture of a blano colony with extension show that your colony is indeed a blano?

I think they are balanos. They match the description of a balano much mroe closely than they match that of a dendro or tubastrea. But I recognize that the fact that they are occurring as a cluster will lead some people to conclude that they are dendros or tubastreas. I can not with 100% certainty say that they are balanos.
And it's not important enough to me to pursue a more definite ID.
I think they are outstanding and very different from all the dendros and tubastreas I have. That's good enough for me.

took that picture only 30 minutes after they got in the tank. These are very happy and very big. I have very white lights. Under bluer/actinic they're even pinker...
