I'm not sure what it is but I don't think it's a Kenya Tree. The branches on a kenya are much longer.

Not if they are deflated as this picture indicates by the look of the polyps themselves. Kenya trees can often be seen in that state and even more deflated if they are agitated by something.

coral is deffinitely a red kennya tree and the fish looks like some type of small angel or damsel(hard to tell from that angle)

It's a Kenya Tree without question. A Kenya Tree is a soft leather.

Just out of curiousity did the person at Trop call it any of the names below?
Capnella
Tree Coral
Taro Tree Coral
Nephthya
Nephthea
Nephthea Tree Coral
Cauliflower
Cauliflower Soft Coral
Broccoli
Branch Coral

I've got both Kenyas & Cauliflower leathers and still think his pic looks closer to a Kenya. The polyps in his picture are deflated as mladencovic pointed out earlier. My Kenya will look the same but not the Cauliflower when deflated.

jaynduke, have the polyps opened up on it yet? Since it's a little bit tough to tell from the pictures can you describe the coloration of this leather a little better for us? Any chance of snapping another picture for us?
