Bought this coral a few months ago...it's doing great I have just never known the true name. I was told it may be a type of "Cyphastrea" but it doesn't look quite like the pics I find online. It's lower light and encrusting that's all I know.
Any input appreciated, thanks.
 
Could be a type of montipora. I have a rainbow monti that looks similar but the polyps are smaller than what yours are.
 
Yeah these are like little open craters and they retract and move sometimes it's cool it's been growing great in my tank and it's tucked in and the bottom of my rock work
 
C'mon Tony!!! Don't buy that stuff!! I couldn't even tell you what it is and I took it out of the box!!
