Got some better images from the last time i tried identifying on Facebook, thought it was pavona but its not growing up, its just growing across the rock. Any ideas? Its basically just working its way across the rock

It does looks like a Pavona coral, ? I had a purple Pavona and was mainly encrusting for a couple of years before I saw leaflet / chip
A few reasons that corals, encrust sideways is:
Creating a base for the
Coral / colony
Po4 could be high
Flow, and light
