It does looks like anthelia, the only thing is anthelia doesn't grow from tube like hard skeleton. Looking at the base I would say organ pipe coral.
May be anthelia took over dead skeleton?Interested to see what everyone else thinks.

Wow Wes I think you might be right! It certainly does look like some type of Anthelia :lol:

MWS Yeah I wondered about the pipe structure aswell... Its also in the shape of a ball...

Nope pipe organ coral for sure look at the skeleton....

Just really long extension ..:)

DING DING DING, I found this:

+3. Pipe organ.

Yes the extension is confusing. Mine is short.

Definitely Pipe Organ. No question.

That is definitely a Pipe Organ, and one of my favourite LPS. I have 3 Pipe Organs. One has long polyps like that and is similarly colored, the other two are short polyped and white from Walt Smith.
