Hi, I’ve recently been given this coral from a mate who’s leaving the hobby. The problem is neither of us know what it is. Could anyone help?

Could you provide more detail. Hard or soft?

Looks like a green sinularia.. any pictures of it open?

Unfortunately it hasn’t opened since it was introduced two days ago. It’s definitely a softie so don’t think it’s green sinularia. I have a better image:

They come in a wide array of colors. Mine looks like that. Greenish top with a baige body.

They like med high flow and just about any light conditions. About 75 par and up. Good luck they are a great coral and have potential for strong growth.

Possibly some sort of Lobophytum.
