    Not sure. Saw some on a google search but they don't have the same body shape as mine. I think the term tooth coral applies lots of different species just like brain coral does.

    Does yours have similar body shape to the pictures I included in my post?

    I've only recently started feeding mine mysis with a turkey baster and that's only because I bought some other corals that I want to feed. About half an hour after the lights go out the mouthes expand and the tentacles come out. That's when you'll want to feed it.

    I really like this coral. It did well under my PC lights. Seems to be expanded more now that I have T5s. I have it on my sand bed with the skeleton partially burried.

    Here is another pic under actinics.
