Looks like a Blastomussa, or brain or some sort? Whatever it is, good score! Looks great - I want some... :mrgreen:

i thought about Blastomussa but i wasnt sure it is a smaller polyped coral each polyp is about the size of a pencil eraser head..some of the colonies are about 4"x4" that one in the pic is about 3"x4"

thanks for lightning it up !! :biggrin:
