What lps is this?

Can anyone tell me what this is? I was thinking maybe some form of Merulina, but I'm not sure. I got it at Aquarium Adventure down in illinois. They thought it was an acan. It has 2-3 inch sweeper tentacles that come out from time to time.

Looks like a favia almost.

I would say a favia or favites also. A merulina won't have sweeper tentacles as far as I'm aware (a merulina is a stony coral).

I guess those weird knobs were making me think it was something else. It was only $12 though so i had to get it. Thanks!

b4 even reading the answers others gave, I also thought favites.

I never had a favites, I just knew it didn't look like an acan! Thanks guys!

I think it might be something else, I can't remember the name of it off hand though.
