Got this today. Was sold to me as a galaxea but I'm not so sure. Looks nothing like my previous specimen. The one i lost was mostly brown with white tips. I lost the other to an unfortunate accident caused by the lfs giving me freshwater instead of saltwater. Dping a water change with freshwater in a pico reef is not a good thing! [emoji15]

Looks like a Galaxia. Check just before any lights go on and see if there are any feeder tentacles out.
 
It's a galaxea
 
Galaxea my vote. I have seen one at a LFS that made me question it. It was a large polyp galaxea. The polyps were bigger, with more space between them. My galaxea was a super fast grower with deadly sweepers. That seemed to be a foot long.
 
Yep its a galaxea. Sweepers were out this morning. Moved the mean sob to its own area.
