Newbie here with a I.D. request

Greetings all, I could not find a Coral ID thread so I am asking here as I think this is a LPS. I attended Reefapalooza New York last year (had a blast). But I Picked this up and for the world of me cant remember what it is. Any assistance is appreciated.

definitely LPS
could maybe be acanthophyllia or some sort of scoly but i’m sure someone else can better ID this if you can get a picture under white lights

Thank you I should have thought of that. I will add the picture after the lights come on in the morning.

oh well with it being a lobo (i couldn’t tell because mine looks different because color and size) but i keep mine on the sand and it’s been growing steadily over the last few months
couple days here n there out of the month it looks like an insane jellybean inflated for some reason (i cannot for the life of me understand why) but so far so good without me moving it or anything

You took the time to reply and that is greatly appreciated. Sounds like yours is turning out great hope mine does to. Since I brought it home the color has been slowly coming out. No growth but not sting so win win so far. Besides it was practically a through in when I picked out some hammers.

Acanthastrea pachysepta, not Lobophyllia
