We have this coral at my job but I'm not sure what exactly it is. It's definitely an LPS. It has the skeletal system like a chalice but it has polyp extension about 3/4" and it's a fuzzy polyp almost like green star polyps. It is very unreactive to being touched. Any clue?

Hard to tell from the picture but it might be galaxya coral....seems likely
 
It's not a galexea. Galexea has a raised skeleton under each bundle of polyps. This one is coming from a skeleton that's flat and ridged like a fungia plate coral. I figured out it is an encrusting hydnophora. *im sure I spelled that wrong* lol
