This coral began on a frag disc that had zoanthids on it.at first it looked like a crab that had been encrusted over but has now grown to this.i do not think I have anything similar in my tank that may have started it. any idea what type of coral this is?

Can't tell with the picture. Can you take one with my white light?

I will but it is green, smooth w no visible polyps... almost looks like the skeleton of a torch coral

Possibly pavona/leptoseris coral from what I can see in the pic and your description.

no fuzz on it though

Psammacorra is another possibility. Hard to tell

 

[DSC reef]

Not all lepto is fuzzy

Could be a Devonshire cup coral?

Take it out of the tank and put it on a white dinner plate lit from over head - like at the breakfast table. Then take a picture of it.
