He might be a purple Turbinaria (cup coral) that has not acclimated & came out yet... is he new & just placed n the tank

Here an example of one...

see that others think...

 

[nanoreefing4fun]

bit hard to tell... he also may be a Cyphastrea (meteor shower)

Could b a blasto as well. Get a pic open. It'll help

Looks like the cup coral pic......"polyps" look too big for the meteor shower.

+1 Could be 1 of those 3. I think cyphastrea

 

[luckydean]

I've had it in my tank for a couple months the polyps don't raise up they just open and it just spreads to other rocks

I would say look at google images of the 3 mentioned and see if you can ID it to 1 of them. Let us know.

My size perception is off! If your pic is of a 1 inch coral then I will jump on the cyphastrea train!

 

[luckydean]

It kinda looks like the meter shower but the colors don't match up mine is all one color even the polyps on it

I have a Pagoda Cup coral about 4.5 x 5 inches. Under a white light it's yellow under my lights it's green.
It's like the 2nd or third piece of coral I bought and it's doing great!!
If I could ever learn how to post pics with Tapatalk or Photobucket. I got as far as putting my pic on
my thread (s), but not when I post. One day you will see my tank. You can see it on My Profile.
