I know what Aptasia is and I know the difference between aptasia/anenome and coral.
Not Aptasia, coral.

Also off the top of my head, it's not cup coral as cup coral does not have a skelaton and this does, it;'s also not strawberry anenmome's because they have less rows of tenicles than the strawberry does. This does not close up, it's just expands bigger or smaller. I can affect the color of the coral with what I feed, more or less red. There's been more but can't think right now.

Phyllangia americana.

Stony coral found in the Western Atlantic/Caribbean. Nonphotosynthetic. Common hitchhiker on Florida aquacultured live rock. Very easy to keep with regular feedings, extremely hardy, reproduces fairly slowly.
