Can anyone help identify coral in the middle? Is it a frogspon? I’ve had it for 4 years, started from a two head frag.

Octospawn
The difference between these two corals is the tips known as vesicles at the ends of their tentacles. Frogspawn Corals have split elongated vesicles that resemble Frog egg clusters, which gives them their name.
Octospawn has compact size clustered tips of eight at their tentacle ends.
