Trying to Identify

[CCMoto]

I had gotten this one from my mother-in-law when she got out of the hobby and shut down her tank, but she didn't know what it was. My thought is that it may be an acan.... But I'm not an expert with identifying corals lol. I thought someone on here may know. The first pic is with the lights on of course and the second is in the middle of the night with the lights off. Thanks for the help in advance

I think auto correct got ya there lol. But if I'm right you meant favia right?
So I did some looking for green favia and found this one that looks like it's spot on.

Thanks man, it was almost dead when I got it. Down to 2 heads and a skeleton. Managed to bring it back in my tank and it's come a long way since then. I know nothing about these though so now that I know what it is I'm gonna do a little research

Nice well it seems happy with what your doing! At night when it’s tentacles are out and stuff like that they will take mysis target feedings. I’ve had noticeable growth from doing this vs letting them sit and do their thing. Both ways work lol, as with everything in reefing.

Thanks for the heads up, I'll have ta give that a shot. I already feed everything else so now that'll be on the guest list now too. I also add reef roids from time to time, maybe that's what helped it along idk though

For sure, reef roids in moderation is magic lol.
