No, that's a Distichopora sp. Fire coral, not a true coral at all and one with a very spotty record in captivity. They do not like light... I'm not even sure they are photosythetic... and thus need to feed on something. What I'm not sure. They are relatively benign for a fire coral, but can sting things.

Anyone have any success with these?
