Scolymia sounds about right.

Great read thanks ....... I always find it hard to tell the difference with Lps...... Wellso or trachs ( which I believe they classified as the same now) then some lobo look like scolys....... Then modern corals and cynarias .......

Yes no more Weslsos, all are either t. radiata or t. geoffroyi
And agree, the lobos and scoly corals can be confused easily.

can you get a pic with light other than just blue? Im kinda leaning toward lobo but as said it can be hard sometimes with them.

Looks like Lobphyllia to me.

Can you post a picture of the skeleton? (flip it over)

Looks like lobo but skelton would identify it better

 

[steallife904]

Im pretty sure its a Lobo

Did the LFS sell it at a scoly price????

 

[jfourn]

40$ so probably in the middle

Lobo but if you see where the feeding tentacles would come out it looks like a scolymia
