Hi guys bought this as a frag months ago but forgot the name. Growth has stalled so I want to research further to help it grow.

Thanks!

Almost positive it's not a torch or any other typical one. It has a skeleton but it seems to just encrust outwards. Heres a couple more. Sorry old phone and some algae that needs to be cleaned up.

Thanks guys that looks like it is it! Appreciate you taking the time to identify for me. Took a better vid and scrubbed the glass if there was any doubt.

And the filefish passed away last month sadly but he was such a great little fish. Managed to get a captive bred one and he readily ate mysis and never bothered any corals.
