    Need help ID'ing this piece of coral!

    Picked it up off a local guy last weekend. I asked what it was called but forget now.

    Is it an LPS?

    galaxea. Very potent sweepers, keep it 6 inches from other corals.

    Thanks for the help. It's about a foot from anything else now but I will keep it away when I add more stuff.

    It resembles Galexea on liveaquaria rather then Hydnophora.

    Overall seems to be a nice piece of coral and seems to be doing really well in the tank.
