    I'm now 100% sure it's a efflorescens. It's an encrusting coral.

    Sure thing! It's a slow grower though compared to my green monti cap.

    I finally broke down and called my friend. It's a LE Strawberry cap but he can't remember where the mother came from. He has a thick Korean accent and talking to him is always such fun! LOL

    I would bet by the polyps size that it is a Tyree. But I know there are several sources that sell his stuff.

    Give the birdsnest enough carbonate and watch it grow, sort of like bamboo.
