I was thinking it some type of brain but I don't know much lol
Feeds like crazy at night , been feeding it bits of shrimp ,looks to have 3 to 4 little mouths along the middle and once it get going for food it starts opening up flaps and gets much bigger

This came up with a search of acanthastrea bowerbanki, even if it's not the same, they look similar to me.

 

[Elementalj]

And here's another one that showed in the search, it's leads to a discussion on a site that we shall not mention. [emoji6]
