If I had to guess, it looks like good old Frogspawn to me ... down there, it may be Porky's variant :-) (Kind of short arms though)

Agreed that it's a frogspawn, I think someone had called that variant Australian.

Technically, I believe it's an Octospawn.

Thanks. I looked up some pics and it's definitely an octospawn

Nice...I had some like this a few years ago (ok.... quite a few years ago) and was told it was frogspawn by the guy I got it from in Cincinnati. Doing some online research, it seems like there's two lines of thought on it. Either its the same (liveaquaria and animal-world) or its a different species (reefcentral and reef2reef). Looking at pictures, what I always thought was frogspawn is actually called octospawn on the latter. I don't think I've ever seen what they actually show as frogspawn though. Great thing about this wonderful little world of ours :-)

It's cool hobby for sure. I tend to just buy it if it looks cool, no real plan other than no SPS for now.  I think I will just call it the green wavy thing with dots.
It costs HOW much?!
