    I saw these corals at a LFS, the lady there was very busy and I didn't have time to wait to ask what they were so I took a few pics in hopes that someone here could ID them.

    Thanks

    That is quite the colony too. What are they asking for it?

    Thanks all.

    It's in their display tank, I don't think they sell out of it but sometimes frag out of it.

    Gotcha. I have a two head candycane/trumpet coral frag in my tank. It hasn't grown too much in the 6 weeks or so that I have had it, but it is brightly colored and a cool piece to observe at night.

    I have been the last couple of weeks. It's tough with my darn cleaner shrimp stealing everything from his polyps.
