Hello everyone,

Thank you for your time, my kids call it my little volcano coral

It doesn't appear to be open and blues make it harder but I will take a stab and say it opens into a Duncan head.

I was thinking the same as @Lost in the Sauce , a duncan head.

If you can get a better picture in white lights with the head open, we could most certainly ID it then.

Gonna agree as a duncan head , mine looks similar anytime I'm doing tank maint .
They like to eat 2-3×s week small meaty foods like thawed mysis. LRS reef frenzy thawed and target fed a small bit they enjoy .

When I got him, I do not know if he was damaged or not, he has been eating reef roids and mysis. That is actually the most tentacles I have seen in weeks, he was always just a sunken in volcano looking structure, then when he started getting fed twice per week I started to see the tentacles start to come out the top. If this guy is a duncan I will be super excited. Let me know if this picture is a little better.
