Id?

[Psychographic]

I got this coral from a fellow reefer tonight. He could not ID it nor has anyone else who has seen it. It was a hitch-hiker in an Aussie shipment, So far the best guess is a Plate Coral.

What do you think it is?

Looks like plate coral

Can you take a picture of it fully closed up? That would help a lot. The way it looks open, it could be a few different things; Fungia and Blastomussa wellsi come to mind first.

There is an ID forum at the bottom of this forum. Try posting there.

definetly a fungia sp.

+1 Fungia Sp. I have one, the polyp itself is only the size of a quarter.

Are fungia able to stay attached in that position? I thought they were a sandbed dweller and would just fall if inverted like that. My impression is a Blastomussa wellsi.
