Very strange growth pattern.

Our hydnophora is branching like an acro.

There are several kinds of of Hydnophora. The most popular are Branching (sp.) and Encrusting (exesa). Like any coral in the hobby; it`s the colouration and uniqueness in pattern that may make certain ones more desirable. Both varieties are very aggressive towards their neighbours. The ``fuzzyness`` of the polyps look great in the current and lighting.

You nailed it on the head there good sir, to be honest price is nothing to me, I am not one to pay 100$ for a .25 inch of color but ill trade for it (maybe)
This particular coral is nasty in the sting your neighbor department but but, that being said Acans, paly's, lots of other corals do the same thing.

I will say this baby is my fav and will get a large home in my next tank when I move.
