Well, yesterday I picked up a gorgeous astreopora that isn’t like the usual ones you’d often find (completely Bright green or brown). It looks as though it’s plating so I wondered if this was possibly an Astreopora randalli but the thing putting me off of it is these guys are from protected reefs to my knowledge.
P.S. Photos make it look completely green but it’s got a more blue/teal flesh.

So, anyone got any guesses as to the species of Astreopora it is (I don’t really care about names but more actual scientific species).

This isn’t much better but here’s an after lights out photo, it looks wrong for an Echinopora to me. The Corallites look too spaced out and small.
