Can anyone ID this coral?

Hello

Bought this coral a couple of months ago as an acan, but im unsure now given the face and look. It isnt inverted towards the mouth, it sticks more flat like a plate with tentacles on the outside edges.

Photos below - one after eating and one normally. Apologies for the blue, i can take another photo in whites if easier.

I would have guessed acan myself, but by no means am I an expert.

Looks like an acan in the first picture. It’s popping babies like one i think.

The face of the big polyp is around 1 inch in diameter, which i assume would be too large for a micromussa?

I figured potentially acan but the polyp threw me - its not 'curled' in like typicall acans its just flat

No that is correct for Micromussa lordhowensis aka former Acan lord

Basically acanthastrea lordhowensis was reclassified as micromussa lordhowensis so acans are still known to us as acans and probably always will be in the hobby but the correct name would be micromussa
