Possible LPS? ID help please.

Bought this as I was looking for a Duncan to start with. Both the LFS guy and I thought it was a Duncan but I'm not exactly sure. It's doing very well, eats Target fed mysis and comes out during the day. Looks like it's growing mouths as well. The help is most appreciated!

The picture is not really clear but 1000% it's not a duncan. It's most likely a type of chalice (Echinophyllia).

It looks like a chalice

I was thinking maybe a Cyphastrea

I know right? It's not like any Duncan I've seen, but the heads look about right. Hence why I asked.

Yes, turbinaria; aka pagoda.

maybe a scroll coral? Pagoda is a really good guess too

 

[DSC reef]

Scroll coral is a turbinara renniformis I believe.
