Help me ID this encrusting coral

[Dapg8gt]

Need some help on this one got this from a fellow RC'r today and was wondering what it's called. I'm guessing it's an SPS if not I apologize.. Just moved it before the pic but it has nice raised polyps red/orange and a purplish base. Fully encrusted on two frag plugs about 4" across. Was thinking scroll or pagota but I didn't think they encrusted like this. Any help or a point in the right direction would be appreciated. Hoping it's not too aggressive cause on the same rock is some sunset monti I scored cheap that was totally bleached out that's just starting to do well. Would like to know if I should seperate these guys.. TIA.

cyestrea

eyes are pretty big similar to meteror shower proper lighting will give it the grey blue body with orange polyps

Thanks for the ID. Looked up some specs and I guess I need to move it lower in the tank. Dang time to move some stuff. No available real estate Lol. It's directly under my 250. Came from under AI sol cranked up so IDK. I'm gonna just move it lower and see. Thanks again.

My vote is for; Cyphastrea serailia

Or, C. chalcidicum

If it is well colored and growing well, then I wouldn't worry about moving it. In my experience, this species isn't too demanding in regards to lighting though.
