Flowerpot ID

Happy thanksgiving, thanks for taking the time to read! So I got this coral at aquashella, I believe the guy said it came straight from Indonesia, he gave me a discount at $75. It’s grown some new heads and I was wondering what type of flowerpot is it? Is it rare like the guy said?

It looks like a goniopora. Red variants are fairly uncommon, and generally considered more hardy than the green ones.

I believe its referred to as australian pink and yellow goniopora. Not much info on them though and only an couple search results come up.

Agree with all the above. We got one similar from the 10 dollar tank at world wide corals. Not sure where it was collected though. A solid grower.

Hello, I bought a goniopora 4 days ago and am wondering what type it is.
Does anyone know if it's normal that he isn't extending fully yet? (he is extending about 5cm i think)
Maybe i should place it in the sandbed, now it has medium lighting and indirect flow from 2 sides.
The picture isn't good but i can't get any better, it looks redish/pinkish.

It could be the light but looks like a gonipora i picked up a while back.
