Just wondering if anyone knows what this is?

it’s very cool with a gold speckled look mostly green, the white bars on the side kinda confuse me do.
 
Few pics would help lol

Looks like a trumpet coral. Calaustrea sp.
Thanks mate but the mouth doesn’t match either, she looks a bit like my other trachys but the markings at the side kinda confusing me
 
I had one come in on my live rock. Sadly I lost it when it got stung by an anemone. It has some nice red when in lower light, but turned mostly green in higher light.

Stunning looking coral that mate, am I wrong to think that as yours grew, she developed more mouths?
 
Yup, they get bigger and then pinch in and make new mouths.
