I'm not sure

I dont think so. It almost looks like some kind of trumpet that has a few heads that are splitting.

Maybe an Acan

Looks like a lobed brain.

Lobed brains are all connected arnt they? That looks like it's starting to branch out

Looks like an acan...just never seen them like that before branching.

I fragged it and put a bit in my friends tank!! It's getting bigger now and splitting but it eats eats eats there is a person with a pic at the top of this thread that has something similar in colourings, but I don't see many in LFS

Looks like a Lobophillia.

Looks a bit like doughnut coral I have some and its pretty similar to your pic that's what the girl at the shop said it was google it and see what you think hope this helps

It's definitely a Lobophyllia. "brain coral" is such a broad term covering a lot of different corals.
