I don’t know what this is...

Okay. Whats up yo. Anyways, so in February, I bought a coral from a local fish store, and at the time the guy had a few of them. It was around $50 for its size, but I’m not sure if that’s relavent. We have no idea what it is... The owner of the store is an amazing guy but frankly, he doesn’t remember what it is called either. It’s now July and over the months, the coral has been doing fine, except not much noticeable growth, and I was wondering (along with the name) if the location in the tank with lighting and flow is slowing growth too. Long story short, I’ve got this kinda blue-grey coral with neon green spots between the blue parts. It’s not a flowy wavy coral and is hard to the touch. The “circular pieces” I guess I would say, kind of resemble honeycomb shapes, if you take off your glasses and have really bad vision. I’ll send a picture of it in the morning, but let’s see what you can do. Thanks broskis!

Maybe some sort of montipora. Hard to say without pic.

Looks like a war coral. I have several. They remind me a Salvador Dali’s paintings.
