I bought it 6 months ago but forgot to ask the shop what it was called . I’m thinking if it’s part of the Acan family .

I can’t tell my eyes are bad and that’s not a good picture, but it kind of looks like a acan or candy cane maybe

Yep, that's coral.

(I think it's a ticked off trumpet/candycane. Polyps look a little too distinct to be some kind of favia or micro. But then - it could be. How much skeleton is there? Is it forming a little mound of tightly packed polyps, or is there a branching structure underneath?)

Merulinidae sp, probably Dipsastraea, or maybe Astraeosmilia
