Bought this today, and from what I can work out it’s an acan? But anyone able to ID it’s the first coral I’ve added to my tank. Wasnt labelled at the LFS

Looks like an a an to me. Hopefully someone else can come in and comment.
 
I think it could also be a Blastomussa species, but I'm not too sure either.
 
Ai had it as blasto but has also said acan and my mate also said acan

dang, my responses are as helpful as AI ☹️

Well I tried 😂
 
I’m pretty sure it’s a hard coral that will like to eat drift food bits at night. It’s probably going to look better and the proper id will be obvious when it starts growing.

So long as I don’t kill it 😂 it’s definitely sulking atm
