    Yeah, in my eyes same goes with hydnophora, it doesn't really have individual polyps they look like the feeding tentacles of a LPS.....
    If I had to guess stylophora and pocillipora are my guesses, stylo being the closest, IME..

    I'm guessing Stylo as well or Digitata. What kind of Rock is that, I've never seen rock like that?

    I see.
    They do actually look like feeding tentacles to me as well.
    Down the islands... I'm gonna frag some pieces. Let me know if you want a frag.

    Yep it is skeletal coral. It was washed up on a beach in the sister isle, Tobago
