This is one of the hardiest corals I've kept. It has survived all of my mistakes as well as a brown jelly event that wiped out pretty much everything else aside from zoas and blastos. It grew from a tiny frag into 3 large colonies (it "drips" off polyps that I can then attach elsewhere). I've always thought it was Acan echinata, but I've not been able to find pics of the same variety anywhere. It's a bit shaggier than acans I see on the internet, and each polyp has a small green mouth. Can an expert confirm what I've got here??

I would say that’s most likely a Blasto
