Coral ID
 
Morning all,

I was hoping someone might be able to help me ID this coral. I was told that this is a scrolling hydnophora, but I cannot seem to find much information. Any pictures that I have seen look nothing like this one, so I am not exactly sure if this is what I have.

Any information you guys have would be welcomed.

Kinda looks like a pagoda cup coral.

Hello Taz,
The coral you have is Echinopora lamellosa and quite a nice one at that.
Echinopora sp. generally have ridges across the coral face and a much different polyp form from Pagoda cup coral (Turbinaria sp.)

Could you PM me as to where and when you purchased this coral?
Thanks
