one easy give away is the fact that the polyps are all interconnected. acan lord have distinct separate polyps. acan echinata, subechinata, and hillae have interconnected polyps tho, but they look very different than favia, so easy to discern.

Favia for sure, but a very nice one too.

Agreed on favia, too. Like Tigahboy said, the polyps "gel" together on favia more-so than others. Great looking piece, though. :)
