This is on a colony of zoas i have. Does anyone know what this may be?

Maybe a type of galaxea? its pretty small in size about the size of a quarter?

Hi Aquatic Express

From the image you posted it looks well like the coralites are independent and tubular or pentagonal or hexagonal tubes...could be in fact galaxea...looks like one.
Have you ever seen if it extends long polyps?

Cheers

it stays just like the picture. I was told from a buddy of mine that it could be a siderastrea.

Hi Aquatic Express ;-)

Siderastrea you say...hmmm:scratchch....well it doesn't look like a Siderastrea. Have a look here. It seems to be a Galaxea coral. If it reallyt is, then it is a very aggressive coral.

Cheers

my bet would b galaxea too. given time it should kill everything close to it.

I agree galaxia with the evidence that has been presented
