Just bought this they tried telling me it was a mummy eye chalice but they weren't too sure them selfs. It looks totally different then a mummy eye

Looks as if you purchased an acanthastrea echinata

How positive are u on this? Not doubting you at all. My lfs thinks either a lords howsensis or a bowrerbanki

Its not a Lord Howe but may be a Bowerbanki. Hard to tell the size of the corallites with your pic.

 

[BigRedSquid]

Whats the corallites

 

[BigRedSquid]

Nvm I looked it up

 

[BigRedSquid]

The big one is prob the size of a quarter and smaller one maybe penny or a dime

A corallite is the skeleton of the individual polyp.

Then may very well be a a.bowerbanki Looks like you got something there!

 

[BigRedSquid]

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
