Color: If the photo isn't clear is a light blue
size: each of the 4 heads is a bit more than an inch across.
Is is soft to the touch and sways with the current.
Big appetite and two of the heads are about 2 months old - grows fast.

Thanks. That is what I thought. So I suppose I need to give it some room to grow. My LFS had it in a frag tank for $9.99 and called it a Candy Cane (I knew that was wrong). It is sitting about 15" under my LED's and 7" deep

It looks like my candy cane (picture) but growing much bigger and faster. Also the candy cane does not have that soft waving head. I guess different variety[attachment=65495:name]

Quick question. You see where it is placed in center top 1/3rd of tank. This is a 55G with 2 - 165watt LED's.
Will it be OK at a lower place in the tank? Everything, even on the bottom is doing great.
