The coralites on the coral in questions are 2-4 mm across. I have not spotted any sweepers yet but I will keep looking.

It is almost 7:00 am, the LED moonlights are on and the tank receives some incidental sunlight in it's location. The coral is fully extended, not retracted as in the 2nd photo I posted.

The mystery continues.

Are we having fun yet?

Much as the credentials of those on this board far outweigh my own, I can only say that the coral in question is Identical to the porites sold hosting christmas tree worms at JL Aquatics.
I am also assuming that the coral I have is the same as yours considering we both gor cuban LR around the same time so there are a lot of ways I could be way off base here.

Never seen sweepers, does the other coral mentioned host christmas tree worms?

I'm having fun...
