What Type Of Coral Is This?

[B.R.Right]

What type of coral is this, is this from Sun Coral Family and what should I feed them?

And what is this fish again? TIA...!

Looks more like a Galaxea coral to me. That's a Sailfin Tang

I think it looks like a Goniopora. If so they are hard to keep for any length of time without a refugium. They feed on plankton and do best when fed each day.

My immediate response is Galaxea.... I know what you mean Colin the polyps look like little 'flower pots' just like Goniopora. What makes it more like Galaxea is the stems are short and out of proportion with the head of the polyp and it seems too fleshy. That is not to say that I am right and your wrong I was just justifying my thoughts and mental processes. I am, however, now very interested as to what it actually is .

my first thought was a retracted goniopora, though galaxea seems a good call.

I guess we could way and see if it develops super long sweepers and then we will know that it is a galaxea .
