Started growing on a piece of live rock, thought it was a piece of my stunner chalice but now that it's bigger it doesn't look like a chalice, thinking it's some kind of cyphastrea. Also found a little bit on a frag plug that I thought was empty that I got from the same guy I got the LR so I don't think it's a hitchhiker.

Here's 2 more pics including the one on the plug, the plug is only 1.5" for comparison on the size. Thank you in advance.

Any ideas?

Not much there to go by maybe a Cyphastrea or Turbinaria species.

Thanks for the reply, now that I've done research I'm almost certain you got it right as a turbanaria, since I posted this I also moved the other frag plug into higher light and it colored op and got some PE and now realize that one was a mini stunner chalice. Looked identical before that.
