Torch or hammer?

[mnsean]

I got this frag recently from local fish store. He thinks it’s hammer? I’m not so sure… how can you tell difference when it’s this long?? I think it’s hammer but just want to make sure

green tentacles with purple acrospheres, so I would say hammer (Fimbriaphyllia paraancora). Euphyllia generally don't have the green-and-purple coloration

i wanna say torch? but to me looks kinda like a funky duncan.

Torches also tend to have spherical acrospheres, while this coral's acrospheres are "flattened".
