If you see MinibowMatts post above, he has it all along his back-top wall, but as he said its not GSP, its an encrusting gorgonian. I bet anything that its a Briarium sp. Here is a VERY generalized description of the two: http://animal-world.com/encyclo/reef...or/grnstar.php

Lowredranger, that is an awesome little tank you have there!
Cheers for that stunreefer, i'll have to do a bit of research and work out which ones more commonly grow like that.
Thanks again
