I got this coral marked as a toadstool from the lfs, and I am trying to research it, and noticed that toadstools have little “fingers” on the polyps, but this coral just has individual little polyps, is this some sort of toadstool or something else?

below is an example of what toadstool polyps look like, then what mine looks like:

Agree its a toadstool. The polyps aren't fully extended yet.
