"Symphyllia" coral ID, please

[sck90]

Hello all,

I spotted a wysiwyg coral and it is labelled as a symphyllia even though I know this is nowadays not considered a valid genus. I'm thinking this might be a lobophyllia, but not 100% sure. Any idea please ? Thanks

Thanks guys ! I think I'm gonna grab it, I was afraid it was a colder water brain, but lobos are nice and pretty easy to care for

Any tips on coloration? My Lobos end up being brown in the long run. I get conflicting details on flow and lighting.

Low light and flow can be low to medium

My sand bed is 100-125 par

Target feeding also I feel is important. I feed them 2-3x a week
