I got this coral in a raffle and no one is 100% on the ID. I was told it was "Cujo" because it will sting and kill other corals with its sweepers. It has a green base. It reminds me of a galexa, but not quite.

The sweepers part would say galaxy but when i zoomed up on the right side of pix to polyps do not look like my galaxy. Those polyps look closer to a goniopora.

Sorry too early. On the left side of picture you can see a very distinct polyp shape

This is the best I could do. It does not stay agitated long.

To me it does not look like a galaxy. That coral looks like a different polyp stalk and head. Like a goniopora. Galaxy looks like thick hairs. i have never seen a stalk on mine. But i also never so a brown galaxy either. Goniopora do come in about every color and no where near as nasty as a galaxy which has sweepers 6".
