Not sure but it’s a bute!

 

[ajhudson15]

personally it doesn't look like a bowerbanki to me. its looks more like a favia

 

[andrewkw]

That is no bowerbanki.

 

[Burrito]

Agreed. Favia or micromussa

Looks like a favia/goniastrea. Search for toxic green goniastrea.

Let them know to change it to gonistrea
That is still a nice coral. That and dragon soul were one of my favorites

Yeah at closer look definitely gonistrea. That’s a bit embarrassing [emoji23] I was looking for a name for comparison to one of the corals I’ve found the other day and got a bit ahead thinking it was something unique. Like a bowerbanki.

Am safe to say that this is a toxic green gonistrea den? Is a bit damaged but didn’t notice till I got home.

That looks like micromussa to me my ftiend.

They a tad big to be micromussa in it?

My gut feeling is telling me trachy as I had a similar case in the past from the same store

They were also on a favia skeleton

Yours might be acanthastrea hillae

Yours might be acanthastrea hillae

Same family as the bowerbanki den? With the new classification

 

[DSC reef]

Acanthastrea hillae and homophyllia bowerbanki I believe. Still 2 different corals
