No idea what this fella is...but for $5, i couldn't help myself does not seem to be as fleshy as my acan lords, polyps are the size of a quarter, maybe slightly larger, but not as large as a 50 cent piece.

yea, i had it figured to be a wierd favid of some sort,m and after your suggestion and discussing with a fellow reefer in the area, it looks to have died way back and started 4 seperate colonies. I had these 4 seperate colonies figured as individual polyps on the same animal. After you id, and taking a closer look, what I was seeing as polyps are indeed individual young colonies that must have grown out of the receding tissue, which left behind the skeleton that the current colonies are growing on. Thank you for the help
