I think its an lps. Does well under med flow and good light. Was brown when I bought it. Now its lime green. Growing rather slowly, but def noticable growth.

Looks like some sort of pagoda coral to me.

 

[m.miller1547]

Idk. After looking at some pagoda photos. I don't think so. Second guess?

I think its an lps.

does it have a skeleton?

 

[m.miller1547]

Seems to have a skeleton close to a favia. 1/4 in indentations on the rock its attached to.

More photos

 

[m.miller1547]

Idk if its a skeleton or just some lr its attached to. Very small base tho.

From the additional photos, I'm still sticking with some sort of Pagoda coral. I used to have a smallish piece that looked very similar to the one you have. Different polyps, but same growth pattern and spacing.

 

[m.miller1547]

Hmmm. It seems to be a blob of polyps that trumpet out for light. It's very sensitive. Responds to the slightest shadow or knock on tank.

[Pufferpunk]

I thought palys too, they grow on a mat.

 

[m.miller1547]

Not palys. I've owned 40 diff frags and a few diff colonies.. can someone show me a pagoda pic similar to this.
