    I have this coral in my tank that came with another coral from a local friend of mine. I do not know what it is, except that it grows very slow so far. any thoughts anyone?

    Pecco22 it looks like a frag of Lobophytum sp. or Cabbage coral

    rdevailt0121 You should really start your own thread instead of High jack Pecco22's
    But the left one is a Galaxia coral and the right one is Green Star Polyps
