Hi everyone.
Could you please help me with ID of this coral. It is encrusted on life rock, polyps are small 3 mm in diameter and 2-3 mm tall, retracted when disturbed. Is it Turbinaria sp?
Thanks

What ever it is, it's upset. Check alveopora. Count the tentacles when they come out. If it has 12 it's alveopora.

Either goniopora (24 tentacles) or alveopora as EC said.
