Anyone know what kinds of xenia this is?

[RyanSweatt2004]

not a xenia, its pink anthelia. This stuff spreads way faster that xenia when its happy. This is one coral that can and will take over a tank. Also has a tendency to go asexual and drop all or most of the polyps in a colony if its becoming to over crowded. This will make it come back even faster though. Its a great coral if you want something that will cover your rocks and sway well with the water current.

Nah. Ryan was right, it's anthelia. Note each polyp extends on it's own stalk from the base, no from a shared stem. That's the defining characteristic.
