I'd please

Got this at a frag swap for 10 dollars. I'm thinking it's a scolly but not sure. Also seems to have 3 mouths. One big one and 2 small ones on the far sides

It looks like acanthastrea echinata

It doesn’t shrivel or sway like an acan though. I’ll take a better pic with less blue. Thanks

You might be thinking of micromussa which used to be called acan. Acanthastrea echinata is not like a micromussa where the heads are puffy. Yours looks like a frag of echinata. Heres a pic for reference.

Ok ya that makes more sense. Looks like that. Was kinda hoping it was a scolly but still like it. Thanks for the i.d. appreciate it

Your very welcome.

Will this encrust a rock or should I leave on plug?

 

[DSC reef]

It will encrust a rock but it's a very aggressive coral so plan accordingly.

 

[nemesistundra85]

Awesome thank you, how are the other acans because I got them also

 

[DSC reef]

Not as aggressive but I would give them their own space as well.
