Coral ID

Does anyone know what kind of coral this is? It was sold to me as a leather toadstool online but it is hard to the touch and has barely grown in a year anyone have any clue??

Certainly not a leather, but I'm not certain what I am looking at in the image?

Can you post a white light image? BUmp!

Yes I will post one tonight, it started as just the hard square on the drag plug with only a couple of spots where the polyps came out, it now has a bunch of spots where the polyps come out but the fingers are very small and pretty neon green, I can really tell a growth pattern on it cuz it’s barely grown maybe doubled in a year and a half my parameters haven’t always been spot on though I just wanted a low maintenance soft coral tank so that could be part of the reason it’s barely growing or maybe I should move it to the top instead of the lower one third of the tank

Okay here is the best I could get under normal lighting, it’s polyps are very small but they are light green, the rest of the coral is a cream/tan color

Possibly turbinaria

+1 on Turbinaria, maybe something like reniformis or stellulata

I think you guys are right as well it looks like the second one you said just from a google search, is there any special care I need to give this guy bring in a low maintenance soft coral tank? He’s been through a lot of swings but still kicking just growing very slowly
