    Just picked these up 2 days ago the one on the left i think is devils finger? he isnt happy, he was in really bad water and was getting ready to slime off when i got him. As for the second one i was told by someone on here it can be a cabbage coral? The guy that i got them from says that when the polpys are out they're really long and is like a "shaggy carpet" I don't really know but these 2 corals are just taking too much space in my tank.

    Isn't Devils hand and finger coral the same? I always referred to them as the same ?
