Is this a favia?

[Salty_Northerner]

I was at my LFS and wanted something different. I asked what it was called so he looked on his order list and all it says is *favia!*

FB ppl said not sure and some said yeah and others said micromusa?

Can anyone tell me for certainty what it is? I don't see any sweeper tentacles at night and honestly don't even know if it's happy where its sitting. It's in around 90 par where it's sitting. I spot fed reefroids yesterday to the entire tank and it didn't react like my other lps's. Any info about this piece would be great!

Based upon your description, perhaps it is a chalice of some sort?

That I wouldn't know. This type of coral I know nothing about.

And how the hell do I get a moderator in here to change this darn header!

I reported this issue already, using the "REPORT" button in the bottom of each post.

Title fixed and thread cleaned up! Some of your minds are dirtier than a “no water change” tank’s skimmer cup!

Thank you, this was starting to really work on my nerves and some of these ppl posting wasn't making it easy.

They love you for being you. we all make mistakes, and sometimes they are cringeworthy. I didn't know there were so many Facial Gifs available, so I learnt something.

Nice coral!

What part do I need to take a photo of to help narrow it down?

Thanks Rev.

I think a reefers mind is kinda like a sump where the stuff just sinks to the bottom.

What is this whole thing about? What is the problem with trying to identify what type of coral you have!

It also almost looks like Blastomusa merletti, but also like a chalice, or echinophyllia??? I have no suggestions on photo techniques.
