Good job it's easy to frag!

It needs medium level lighting & medium flow so keeping it to shaded areas may not really help it unless you have strong lighting ( I had it about 3-4 inches away from the water surface with 4 x 36w T5's)

If you can't find it in your inverts book it may be because it's often referred to as Cauliflower Coral or Capnella Sp.

.
Just found as cauliflower coral. Thank you very much as I thought it was a "tree coral" (Scleronephthya spp.) which it states in my reference as "Essentially impossible to keep" and when that is the case I don't like to purchase them. Glad it's not

they are very hardy and appreciate a good amount amount of flow(mines 2'' from a koralia 3), they grow decent, and as for light they seem to get used to intense and low light very good.

It's still bent over but it is sprouting off the bend. This is making me think that maybe it simply cracked the stem in transport. Thanks for the help, it looks good now

Found it and it looks nothing alike. Although it resembles http://www.liveaquaria.com/product/p...48&pcatid=2548 except it has less tiny branches and it is a brighter pink. It was sold to me as a kenya tree but I'm not positive on what it is. I got it from Blue World Aquariums in Edmonton..... my favorite place for livestock hands down. Soon if all goes as planned I will post some pics and start offering frags
