Acan? Micromussa?

[Reefer37]

Hey everyone, still new to reefing and LPS, but any idea what ID on this recent pick up is? I'm feeling like it's some sort of acan, but it looks different than my other micromussa and bigger.

Looks like micromussa lordhowensis

Do they not have feeders usually? My other acan, which got ID'ed as a micromussa has active feeders and will take food directly. This one does seem to have any during feeding or at night.

Any micromussa, homophyllia, lobophyllia, etc, will take food when happy. That looks like an unhappy polyp of micromussa to me.

I just got him a couple days ago so he may still be acclimating. Any recommendations on helping to acclimate or just gonna take time?

Just give it time, maybe place it on the sand bed with low flow.
