I have spondgodes and the polyps are brown and it grows thicker than this . This one has green polyps that match the green color and the branches are very flat , which is what i find so confusing.

Looks like a branching montipora, I have a colony of it.

did some more reasearch and my best guess now would have to be montipora hirsuta . It has a very unique growth pattern , i like it alot.

Branching Montipora sure fits. I'm glad I came across this thread, I really had no clue what it was. I hope it does well for you, seems like it's happy in your tank so far
