Hello 2 orders ago from vivid aquariums i was sent a sps coral in replacement to a coral which did not look good before shipping. I was locally in the area and decided to see if they could ID it which they thought it was a bali slimmer. The other day I went to long beach aquarium and with my luck I was able to see a colony of this coral and it does not look like a slimmer. Now that i had a colony photo I would like to try again and see if anybody can help me ID this cool coral. It is the big green cluster

I would say Pocillopora verrucosa perhaps. Not my image

I was supposed to get a toxic pocillipora but They did not send it due to it not looking well. I believe they said it was some type of acro. I have two types of pocilliporas and it does not have the structure and polyps they do. Thanks though
