Can anybody recognise this LPS please?

The first one withe filter the second one without.

I got this frag of LPS coral at my local fish store for 40 euros and they sold it as a Lobophylia but the polyp us only 2 cm long and it might be a blastamoussa

Please help me identifying it

Thanks a lot

Its possibly a single polyp acan lord, which hopefully will grow in to a colony for you.

It kind of looks like a button scoly. How is the skeleton look? Like it’s been cut or all on it own

Actually they are called button scoly but they aren’t true Scolys. Like the others I’m torn between a single head acan and a bottom scoly or possibly a blasto. That picture is to blue to help much sorry.

Acan Bowerbanki maybe?

I'd let it grow out a bit, a single polyp is going to be hard to identify. It could be anything from bowerbanki to scold. I'd wait to see if other heads start going or develops a different skeletal shape.
