There you go. Now your learning See.. its a lot of work just to find a coral that you have never seen before. It takes detail to identify it. Sometimes it may look like another, but that one little feature will throw it off. The difference I saw in these two was the growing ends. If you look at the ends, the undata matches it perfectly.
