Hard to say when it is that small. It looks like a tiny scolymia.

I am thinking a small Scolly or possibly an Acanthastre Maxima. Neat piece, it should be nice to watch it grow out.

Hmmm looks like a Rhodactis or other type of mushroom to me..maybe a Discosoma? Do a google search for Discosoma Mushroom. I'm thinking that's exactly what it is.

Some type of brain or acan-related species for sure

acan enchinata is my guess..

Thanks for the replies

It's not a type of mushroom but could be a enchinata but doesn't
look like the ones i have. The center area expands when i feed
and it has feeding tenticles. I'll see if i can get a picture of it
when it's feeding.

I dont believe it's a scoly either.
