    faviid coral?
    Acanthastrea?
    Goniopora?
    Echinophyllia?
    brain coral of some type?
    Moseleya?
    Goniastrea?
    Are you 100% sure? It looks exactly like a micro/blasto.

    One of those is the correct Genus. What is the species?

    I owe both of you an apology...i researched it a little better and its from the faviidae family but still dont have a slightly more defined name from either one of you...not looking for exact species but a little closer
