Hi hitchhiker coral? Keep or get rid?

what’s the name? Should I keep it?

Looks like pocillopora coral. There is debate on whether they become a nuisance through uncontrolled spreading.

Pocollipora, a good idea?

My first couple of SPS frags were a neon green birdsnest and a green pocillopra. The birdsnest has grown massively whilst the pocillopra is only just starting to take off. I hear the stories of polyp bailout and I don't want a display of rather boring pocillopora. Do happy, healthy pocillopra...

+1 to pocillopora, maybe some chance of being stylophora or a kind of seriatopora, but from the looks I'd say pocillopora.

It dose look like a pocillopora. If that's the case I'd keep it. Sure they might grow fast but you can always send it to the chopping block and trade some frags.

Here’s a different angle.

In the second picture on the bottom left. You can see it looks like aptasia ?

 

[IKD]

Yes, it could be aiptasia or just some clove polyps. Hard to tell on the picture.
