Common names IMO should be outlawed. Could it possibly be a Plerogyra sp.? A pic would help.
I just picked up a new frag from the LFS and they said it was an octopus coral, but I can't find much on the net about one to even know if that is truly what I got. It has the hard skeleton similar to a candy cane coral but the soft part looks similar to a bubble. They are green with pinkish brown tips, almost like an anemone. So do I have an octopus coral or what do I have?
Thanks!

Well, after some photo search on the net, I believe what I have is either a branching frogspawn or torch. They sold me two heads rubberbanded together, so my next question is how should I put these in he tank? Should I just put the branch into a crevice in the rock or try to epoxy it to a rock? I will probably split the two heads up, since they are seperate, I might as well have two colonies instead of one. Provided I can find space so that the sweepers don't get into anything else.
Here is a photo after I got it in the tank.
