Help me identify this coral

Does anyone know what this is? A combo of two things. The green base glows green even in more white spectrum.

Leptastrea purpurea, looks like it's also overgrowing a Leptoseris or possibly some sort of Pavona

Should i try and separate them?

Honestly I don't know. Leptastrea are not particularly aggressive, but I'm not too sure about Leptoseris's temperament.

You'd do more harm trying to separate them. You can try to break off a piece of the base and mount to a frag plug, it'll probably start growing again.

Corals growing over other corals is how the reef is made

Looks like it could be some type of encrusting sponge, but it’s hard to tell from the picture. If it’s been slowly spreading without bothering the corals I’d probably just keep an eye on it. Curious what others think too
