Trumpet coral question

I’m not 100% sure but the green fuzzy ones look like poccilpora .
If you zoom in on the picture it almost looks like alveopora

google those and see if they look similar to you

I am going to look closely at them tomorrow and compare. Ty

Does this look similar ?

Yes! Its odd though because it was legit just the candy cane heads when i bought it ,these started growing 6 months ago. Maybe they hitchhiked on it? I actually had zoas attached to my monti when i got it, they eventually died off as the monti grew

I need to shop at your lfs ......
does the picture I attached look similar ?

if it is . They are and can be considered the Xenia of sps .
they grow fast , and spread .
when stressed they almost release and grow elsewhere .

Haha yes my lfs is great. I will have to make sure i do not stress them then...although they havent spread anywhere yet and its been in my tank for atleast a year, these showing up about 6 months ago. Thank you
