Sorry for the fuzzy pic..cell cam.

Can you id this? Elitereefs sent this to me as a favia. Looks like some sort of chalice to me. Any thoughts?

very short tentacles around the bright orange mouths. It's blue and turns darker blue around the rim. There are also some candy-cane strips (white) around the rim as well.

really hard to tell with the bad picture, not knowing it's an LPS it could be identified as zoanthid lol

Well, I put it into the LPS thread...I didn't know that there was a LPS id thread...my mistake.

It's a bad pic, but you should be able to id what type of coral it is from the pic. I don't need a fancy name, just looking to see if it's favia or chalice.

looks to be a kind of chalice close to miami hurricane?!?

That's what I was telling elitereefs. It grows decently fast. Started with 1 eye and now it's at two in about a month time.

Looks like a favia to me....;)

Well, as a frag, it doesn't look like any favia I've ever seen, but I also haven't seen every favia that God has created!

Do you guys have a pic or link to some sort of favia that you would compare it to? I'll try to get a better pic of it when I can..it's just hard with this cell phone :P
