Nepthia or not???

I got this from Sanjay about 7 years ago; it's from a frag from a colony fragged from my original. I never asked what it was: any thoughts from my iPod pics?
It is brighter green than in either pic and I've never seen it brown.

It looks so similar to mine. I was sold a 2" frag about 8-9 years ago as a neon green nepthea.
Been the slowest growing leather I have.

Appears to be the same neon green nepthea that I have...It grew to 10x it's original size in 2 years, last year I fragged 1/2 of it for a frag swap, it has already doubled back ! I would estimate that it would fill a 10g tank

Thanks all! I always had a hunch it might, especially considering its source. The polyps coming out of the branch stems gave me second thought.
