So I struggle with naming for standard corals like galaxia. In general for galaxea you see either green galaxea (yours and probably 9/10 galaxeas you see) or gold galaxea (imo less pretty than it sounds sort of a goldish brown). A green galaxea is a green galaxea is a green galaxea

Just be careful, my galaxia sends out feeders up to 4 inches at times. This coral is  very  aggressive. And yes, that is a awesome price!

Yeah it'll kill anything downflow of it. Very little beats galaxea in a turf war

In fact a lot of people will use galaxea, euphylia, and other strong stingers to keep fast growing softies confined. It doesn't work great for Kenya tree though as they can still throw babies when they get large enough
