Hey I thought so also but most of these goniopora's grow heads with stems under them, these are all flat. I thought my LFS guy said it was called a flower pot but google doesn't show anything similar.

Flower pot is a nick name. Be sure to keep it well fed with fish poo or other fine floating food so the colony can grab it. Mine like high light and flow as well. GL

It is Gonipora. I keep all mine at the bottom with good alternating flow.

I have three of them now and love them
