I found this tiny coral that popped up a few weeks ago and don’t know what it is. It seems to be some kind of lps, other than that I don’t know. I did have a chalice growing there a while ago, but it doesn’t look like that chalice. Any ideas?

It was a fire echinophora. Looking back at old pictures, it does have the same green coloring. That’s surprising if it is that chalice though, that things been dead for months.
