They are definatly not star polyps.
They are typically call "Sand Polyps", which could either mean Zoanthids or those depending on the vendor.
I am 99% sure Clavularia is the family they belong to.
NOT Pachyclavularia - The star polyp family.
It could be as simple as splitting hairs as some people see it but the fact that the do not grow in a mat pretty much tells you that they are not Pachyclavularia.

You did not read what I said.
The coral in your picture is often called sand polyps, so are zoanthids, which you gave a link for. Do you not understand that ?
Are you telling me the picture of the linked zoanthids are zoanthids or sand polyps ?
Are you going with common names or scientific names ?
CLAVULARIA is the best scientific name to classify your coral. The best and only way we could know is to do a tentacle count of the polyps.
