Acan
Looks like (Acanthastrea lordhowensis)

 

[Jzndvd]

That’s the direction I was leaning.

I was unsure because the polyps were a good bit smaller then my other Acan

 

[James M]

Now I think I’m wrong

Not sure myself. This frag is the same size one of my Acan frags. This one has 7-8 polyps, Acan has 2.

Micromussa lordhowensis?

Micromussa lordhowensis?

Might be

Acanthastrea lordhowensis and Micromussa lordhowensis are the same thing. Looks like a favia especially considering the lobed/segmented polyps

Favia crossed my mind, but all the pics I see the Favia form walls with the other polyps. From what I could tell these aren’t creating walls with their neighbors. More like individual polyps just living next door to each other. Either way it seems to be happy with its placement in the tank.

Favia is a very diverse genus with variations in between polyp structure from species to species.

Oh I trust ur judgement. I was just saying that I wasn’t finding any pics that matched up. So I couldn’t claim it was Favia. But it seems happy and I love the look of it under the blues.

I was going to say favia or favites

Forgot about Favites. That's an option as well
