Identify this Coral please...
 

Can somebody give me a positive ID on this coral?
I think this might be Goniopora ...a.k.a flower pot (24 tentacles)

Any info on this would be nice, since it was sold as something else.
I've been reading about it on liveaquaria.com and it's listed as
a more difficult coral to maintain. I don't like the sound of that !

TIA !

Looks a lot like a gonipora to me.

Yep, it's a gonipora.

Purchase a gonipora, and in a few months it will be a
poragoner.

I'll add this on to the "Things I didn't want to hear list".
I hope my guy will take it back.
