So I decided to be Captain-save-a-coral from Pet*o last month and got this for free because it looked basically like a dead slab.

Got it home and gave it a dip and a brush. Two days later a few polyps came out. A month later and this slab is almost totally encrusting again. And growing .. FAST

The issue is that I have no Idea what it is.. Any ideas?

I'm new to R2R but not new to reefing and I know research is the first step to buying anything for your tank. But I took a chance.

Thanks in advance.
