Psammocora or Lithophyllon?

[Norcalreefer]

Ok I thought this was a Psammocora because I could not find anything else that it looked even close to, but then a friend (thanks mat) found this Lithophyllon RARE, BlueWaterTropicals and it looks very much like what I have.

I think lithopyllon. I have a psammacora and it's quite different from this.

Thanks. I'm not really that experienced with psammacoras, so I did not really know. It looks nothing like my other one, but I know coral can very in how it looks and still be the same thing.

My vote lithophyllon. Psammacora doesn't usually have the lines in the tissue like a leptoseris.
