I need help to ID this coral. I got it last week and I forgot after about 2 days. This time I’m going to write it down if we can figure it out. There is a picture below and maybe somebody can help me ID it.

Gently tap the plug its on to make polyps retract, turn up your whites /decrease kelvin temperature, then take and post a pic..
Could be: poccilopora, stylophora or a montipora.

Given the slightly enlarged arcospheres on the tips of the tentacles, Id say either poccilopora or stylophora.

Wont know until some skeletal details can be seen.
 
Tough to tell with that blued out photo but I’m thinking it a montipora digitata nubbin.

It’s so cloudy because I was doing some work on the tank. I can take a few more in a little bit if needed.
 
Im suspecting this actually might be Sertiopora caliendrum or guttatus maybe?
