It's not either. They don't branch like this one.Maybe. I’ve had hidden cup and the polyps were very long . Maybe pagoda.

Wow great thread, thank you!Need help identifing magical water tree
This came with my live rock and I wasn't prepared for it and I don't really know exactly what it is. It doesnt seem to like Kent MicroVert or mysis shrimp but seems to love raw shrimp from the grocery store. I'd like to know what it is and how to take care of it.www.reef2reef.com
Still not sure that is from the same region for where gulf rock is collected. I thought pagoda cup corals were a species of Duncans and from Australia area.I too leaning towards Pagoda
Looks spot on and super cool.

Aren't all tubastrea non-photosynthetic? I have never fed this coral or any coral in my tank in the last 3 years and my fish mostly get pellets.Yours is different than the original poster, yours looks like a tubastrea of some kind.
The individual polyp/head structure is extremely similar. It is very fluffy in that pic. It is however not a branching type of growth.Yours looks different than the OP's
Not sure if they are all non photo synthetic. I have 3 NPS corals. I do have tubastrea and I don't always feed it. I assume it catches some copepods and amphipods at night that might just crawl on them. I have a ton though since I dose phyto daily.Aren't all tubastrea non-photosynthetic?

Edit: mine looks a lot like Montastraea cavernosa.
