Hello I bought this Euphyllia coral today. What do you guys think it is?

The heads in the red circles make me think it’s frogspawn. Multiple heads per tentacle. Classic frogspawn feature. Hammers have one head per tentacle.
 
Thanks for all the input. I was leaning toward frogspawn. The sales person thought that it could be a hybrid and thought it was maybe a torch coral and possible frogspawn hybrid. I just have never heard of that.
 
I'd say hammer also I have a torch that has a couple tentacles with exter bits also a hammer.
 
@Pierce I was leaning more towards a Grape coral (Euphyllia cristata). Do the tentacles recede during the day?
