This came as a freebie and had one eye. Now 2 more are forming. Any ideas on what it is? Thanks!

Hard to tell but I would have to say not an acan, it does not have the right shape to it. Maybe a favia coral?
 
Your green frag look almost looks like a chalice. The growth flows over and new eyes forming not at an edge. I wonder if you picked it up or put some sugar sand on the edge would the edge shrink or make its way above the sand? I have about 8 chalices ranging in size. The growth edge is "flexible" if you know what I mean.

Also can you tell the skeleton structure under it or the new growth? Rib like structures? I think I see them or atleast part of what I'm talking about.

I love the other two chalices in your pic. Send me some! I think your green coral is in the right spot.

Post more pics! And please keep up updated on growth!
