Coral ID

Is this a gonapora?

 

[fftfk]

Anyone?

Looks like a goniopora from here

More like alveopora from that pic, but can you get a better one?

 

[fftfk]

Thanks for the response. Here are two more pics. I moved it to the cotton but think I might move it again for lower flow. I don't think it likes the flow it is getting.

I ended up with it on accident. I went to a frag swap last week and thought I was buying a rock full of Zoa's. I got home and had this guy.

Alveopora

 

[Tweaked]

To help you with ID, alveopora will have 12 petals per polyp, and gonis will have 24. GL

 

[fftfk]

I think it might be a Goni - looks like 24 petals

goniopora

Goniopora IMO. AKA flowerpot right?

 

[Dkuhlmann]

Yes, flowerpot

Nice suprise I guess let us know how it goes I hear they do fine for 6 months then melt

Completely untrue. Very hardy and have had a few for years. I have about 14 gonipora and alveopora colonies.
