Someone elsewhere said it might be a baby Pocillopora, which I do have one of on the opposite side of the tank.
I've never seen young versions though, anyone else who has, does that sound like a plausible ID? |

Poci for sure, kalk paste or epoxy to cover it. As long as you have a poci in your tank, you see these babies pops everywhere.

Would it be normal that the poci in the tank is blue, but this colony is green? do they change color over time, or is it potentially a different poci, or something else entirely if not the same colors as the parent coral?

I'd say it is a poci for sure as well.

The other one is more of a blue/white color combo, I don't really notice any green. But the two lights are totally different, sounds like under different lights the colors may change? I don't know much about Poci, I thought they ranged from colorful -> brown depending on amount of light, but a green one would always be green or some shade of green all the way to brown, a pink one pink to brown etc., but a green one wouldn't spawn pink ones. |

Well, Pocci is really nice and I don’t suggest you to kill it. Just keep in mind, if you go that route you are going to have Pocci only tank Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
