Hello everyone, do you know this coral? I think they are Acanthastrea Pachysepta but im not sure at all and google also isn't helpful. Thank you for your suggestions.

Looks like a Lobophyllia to me but @encrustingacro will be best to get a true ID.
 
Ahhh I don’t know they change the names of things and reclassify them every few years lol

What you have had <formerly> lobophyllia

Acanthastrea Pachysepta is a reclassification that includes some things that are formerly lobophyllia. Or maybe all things formerly lobophyllia. I don’t know…they (and I don’t even know who “they” are) don’t make it easy to keep track of

And I’m a lobophyllia collector and now I don’t even know what the true names are for the ones I have. They are all lobo to me lol
