So I recently found living coral on a war paint Favia frag I got quite a while back that had died on me. I’m leaning toward it being an acan spawn as it looks more like an acan than a Favia to me, though somewhat hard to tell at its current size.(about the size of a small pea for the largest one)

First two are the babies, second is it eating(looks like acan eating, not Favia), and third is the suspected “parent.”

It’s really hard to tell with the pieces being so small. They do resemble feeders and mouths from Acans, but I have seen feeders like that on some of my favia! Definitely following this post in hopes someone can clarify what they are!
 
This is what the original Favia looked like... think it’s a favites, but still doesn’t look like the baby corals to me in the least.

my favia died and came back from skeleton twice. pretty sure yours is too.

for some reason my tank can't keep this favia alive
