Help ID grass lawn coral

[JGao]

Hi all,

New to the hobby, bought this grass lawn coral but would love to give it a proper name.

Also, how do I add an image without it being an attachment?

Thanks in advance!

You can setup a photobucket account and post the img link from there.

Can you get a diff angle pic? Looks like zoas but hard to tell. Also i see you have alot of hair algae, what are your nitrate and phosphate levels. If they are to high that can kill corals or atleast stun their growth or brown them out.

Maybe gonipora?

It is impossible to say for sure from that picture. To me it looks like a montipora lol. 3 people, 3 different thoughts. Anyway you can get a bigger picture or better quality?

A Goniopora is definitely a possibility, but each polyp would have 24 individual tentacles. An Alveopora will have 12.

Here's a link just for reference.
