What type of coral is this ?
what is the name of it ?
I bought it from my lfs and was told it’s clove pollyps but it’s been a week and there’s no pollyps to be seen it is alive though.
The coral is at the top Middle portion of the photo I attached.

Looks like Galaxea. Bad news! Keep away from any other coral. They are very aggressive and have very long sweepers
Ok thanks.
I think I will return it to my lfs
because now I’m scared and it doesn’t look that pretty.
