That looks awesome, so how did it grow like that? Did you glue multiple frags around some rock? Noob question i know

One frag size of quarter glued on rock. Took it a couple months to settle and then has been growing like a weed. Shaped itself. About 6 yrs old now.

Post number 1036. It’s in my 220. Had enough foresight to take multiple frags before coral death.

Mixed plating Monti

Your unknown is Porites Lobata. I have the same one. It’s mostly hexagonal coralites that are green with purple polyps. The growth normally begins as an encrusting coral of medium speed and then starts to develop dimes which grow in size.

It’s a wonderful coral and pretty much bulletproof.
