looks like open brain possibly a trachyphillia(think thats spelt right) but could be way out.

it it in your tank?? its a beauty

 

[bae1994]

to me it looks like a plate anemone of some sort

 

[Anguilla82]

i would guess at scolymia or trachiphyllia.

 

[Buddyboy67]

Either a trachy as owl says or a cynarina, donut coral, is feeding so harder to tell.
Could also be a hi colour scoly...

some form of open brain by the looks of it

I think from the structure and colouration plus the origin of the tentacles it most probably is an open brain (Trachphyllia Spp). It certainly is a nice specimen, do you own this coral John -o?

No John saw it on a video of someone's tank and my guess is he wants one, and so do I now

Those are the feeding tenticles most LPs have, usually only seen at night though. Or when dosing the tank with food

Scolly or trachy i reckon

 

[SkiFletch]

Trachiphyllia geffroi for sure. That coloration does NOT come from Trach radiata
