The girl in the store called it an acan but I’m not 100% sold on it, doesn’t really look like any other acan or micromussa I have. But I can’t figure out why. Nice find for $19 though (3 heads on it)

Hard to tell under blue lights. It will be easier to identify under whiter lighting. The color pattern reminds me of some favias that have been popping up for sale lately. The way the flesh looks to be connected between the two heads looks more like favia as well.
