I just purchased this guy from the LFS
I wanted to verify what type of coral it is...

It was sold to me as a micromussa. I'm wondering if it might be a chalice. I thought micromussa's had a mouth and a definable polyp... like acans, just smaller. This one the polyps flow into one another... more like I'm used to seeing with chalices.
BTW the pic doesn't do it full justice, it looks much more metallic and bright in person.
