I bought this from WWC (in the physical store) the other day. I’d had never seen one so naturally I had to buy it. I completely forgot what the name of it was though. Any idea?

it’s not an alevopora. The polyps on alevopora aren’t spaced so far and irregularly like this and only have 12 tips. There are like 15 tips on these.
 
+1 alveopora
 
It’s definitely not an alveopora. alveopora have 12 tentacles on each polyp and there are 15 ‘nubs’ on these. If you look closely they are actually like 5 groups of 3
