This is what was sold to me as a rainbow chalice. The first two pictures are of a smaller frag that came off then transporting it. Im thinking something along the lines of acanthastrea echinata. What do you all think ?

That looks like my lobophilia. My Acan doesn't pucker up in the center like that, unless I have them backwards.. Lol
I believe the first photo looks like that due to dieoff and regrowth
