Identify Coral?

9007

Got this with a system I just purchased. It looks like an SPS but covered with a fuzzy mushroom. It's in a BioCube 29 with standard lights so I doubt it's SPS, but I don't recognize it.

Hydnophora?

[staceyd72]

Looks to be a Hydnorpora possibly a Rigida, notorious for stinging their neighbours. Best to keep other corals away (few inches) from it, if it accidentally falls on another coral it usually leaves a nasty mark, IME.

Hydnophora?

Yes, make sure to leave space between it and other corals, very aggressive, will sting any neighboring coral.
