Yea thats the first time I heard the name octopus frog.... just a regular old frogspawn to me!! LOL! At least thats all we call them here. I have never seen a frogspawn with "single tips". A hammer has single tips... like in your photo... as does torch.

You should have no issues finding someone with one in your area. Very common.

Appears "Octopus" is just another name for the "regular" frogspawn.

Really? It is hard to find? Any shop in town carries them... in a variety of colors.

Not the same corals buddy, same family but not exactly the same coral. I have both and these two are definitely not the same.

I believe there are 2 types. I have one just like yvr75 on the bottom pic and it is a wall type of skeleton with bigger tips. I think the pic on top is a branching type. Too bad I can't frag mine, otherwise I'd ve sold you some as it is getting too big for my tank.

I k now which one your talking about. I saw 2 or 3 at King Eds yesterday. $50 each I think. 3-4 heads each piece. I am looking for frags of that too, but haven't seen any around except in the shops.

Why can't you frag it? If its getting too big and you want to sell some of it just cut it with a bandsaw, tile saw or rotary tool. Theres plenty of information online to guide you.

Here are the pics of mine but I am not sure if this is the right kind of frogspawn...

Also my lights don't turn on till this afternoon so these pics are in the dark sorry.
