    ive researched and researched and cant figure out what this is. it definitely likes to hang rather grown up. its kindof cross of kenya and colt. its trunk is white and tips are pinkish. it was a foot long before my buddies sebe got ahold of it (thats why he gave it to me)i had to tie it up with thread( you can see it in the back) but its attached now and have since removed the xtra thread. thanks

    I have a Sinularia that looks a lot like that. Is the the same thing as a finger leather?
