Need someone to id this coral please. I post here cause the old owner said its zoanthid but im not sure what kind of zoa this is. Look more like a blasto colony or somekind of duncan to me

I agree with the others, that looks like either a Duncan or anemone to me.

While they resemble a duncan, I don’t see a skeleton. The bumps on the side look like verrucae of an anemone. My guess would be a gem anemone or something similar :)

Definitely not zoanthid or palythoa. I lean more towards a flavor of anemone as well. Gem or Majano. Due to lack of skeletal tissue/system.
