ID stumped

[1fishkeeper]

Ok I don’t want to be one of those guys but this one here has me stumped. This is on rock that have been in my tank for almost 5 years now. I have never noticed or seen this before until I upgraded my tank and moved the rock over. It almost looks like an encrusting sps but it is in a very little light area. When I first moved the rock over it was just a small little patch growing between the sponges. It is now growing over the sponges growing on the rock. It looks like it has brown polyps with a green base. At first I thought it might be some of the ORA Spongodes growing above it but it is not the same. So what is it?

Was this Florida live rock?

The shape of the polyps, from what I can see, look like a leptastrea of some sort?

yes they do but I know I have never had one in my tank. Not to say a single little little speck wasn't on a plug. But who knows, maybe I need to pull some out and maybe put it on a frag lug and give it some good light to see if they color up any.
