Hi đź‘‹

I’ve bought this coral (to be delivered) which was advertised as a “lobo” - is this a lobophyllia as advertised or potentially something else?

Any advice on placement and care would be hugely appreciated esp in a crowded nano (Fluval evo 52L / 13.5G)
 
Its some sort of brain (I think lobo) so bottom level sand or bottom level on a rock would be good for it. They need enough flow to clean them of any fallen debris but less than hammers. Wherever you keep your zoas in sure it would be happy
