So working at a LFS I get first look at corals when they come in. However I am baffled by what this guy could be. I don’t even know if it’s actually an lps but I think it may be. So here are some pics. Hope someone can tell me. It’s very blue in color can see a small mouth in the center of each polyp and the growth edge has a hint of green.

The polyp are very small. About 1/8” roundish. Size and growth shape is similar to leptastrea but without the tentacles. Any other opinions
 
You’re right , I forgot about that
 
Quick search of blue eyed leptoseris showed up one close match. I like it but don’t feel confident about calling it that.
