My LFS has these bright green/blue sps on sale. Does anyone know what they might be?

My best guess is a lepto or maybe a type of montipora. If it is sps and it is encrusting it is most likely not that bad to house. For example I bough a feather duster worm and it came with a hitchhiking montipora, and I had no idea how to care for it and I had no idea what it was but I managed to keep it alive. If you have already kept sps before then you should go for it, If you are a beginning sps keeper then I recommend you leaving it there, but if you want you can take it you could discover a new favorite coral of yours. Just use process of elimination it seems to have lots of appendages those could be the polyps. My top three that I think it is are leptoseris, montipora, and porities. I'm sorry I could not give a perfect Identification or give you what it completely is. hope you find out have a good day.

I think you are right, It looks too polypy to be a monti it is most likely a pavona, They are still easy keepers.
