Help me ID this please?

Once upon a time we bought a zoa frag. And it was lovely. And then they died and this one little thing was the only thing left, so we assume it killed the zoas to make a home for itself. Can anyone tell me what it is?

Majano? I'll take a better peek when I get on my laptop

Looks kind of like a baby plate coral but it's hard to say for sure

That has a skeleton. Not a majano, I think. Baby plate sounds right to me.

Hopefully that rock turns into a plate factory

logic would tell me that they would be only place coral skeletons, but ive seen them popping right out of rock one after the other

My assumption would be a very small piece of skeleton in the rock as the plate grows larger it eventually snaps off and leaves the small piece that started it and the process starts again but you know what they say about assumptions
