It's a hydroid, but I can't tell you which one off the top of my head and my books are packed :crybaby: I believe if you look through the hydroid section of Lamb/Hanby you should be able to find it.

Another wonder in minature. Almost to small to notice and tough to get a good shot of but awesome when you do.
