I would guess Gemmifera however there is no growth tips showing but it is pretty small to accurately ID

I think you are correct. Compared to mature pics, this really is a tiny frag. Thanks!

I agree with Jason. The growth form and corallites line up with a digitate morphology; I'm leaning towards A. humilis, but A. samoensis seems likely too.
Once it matures the ID will be easier.

tough to call 100% when it grows in more might make it easier
