I’m new to LPS and thought I got a favites from the LFS. Is this Lepastrea? Second photo is right after feeding. These are the best I could do with iphone.

I’d say it’s Favites, leptastrea looks incredibly fluffy with the polyps they have.

I like the “incredibly fluffy” description. I think “fluffy” or “hairy” is how I’d describe it looking in person. Lots of tentacles surrounding the mouths unlike the puffiness of my favia polyps. The top picture is a little unclear due to angle and zoom. The second picture is during feeding with reef roids, so all the tentacles are retracted.

Definitely Leptastrea
