Looking for what this is.

An acan? I'm still learning the type of corals and such.. just been spending money on it now trying to figure out what's what. Thanks everyone.
And maybe placement. Right now it's on a rock mid level in the tank. It's only a 20 long.
4 bulb t5ho coralife
2 ati blue plus and 2 coralife actinic for now.
Think I have a total of 23 corals in there just trying to find them myself so I don't have to ask each one. But maybe I'll start this thread as my go to thread of Id of things and such so I'm not making a new one each time I become stumped.. thanks.

Not a coral expert but I'll tag some [HASHTAG]#reefsquad[/HASHTAG]
 
I'm thinking chalice
 
Acan echinata. They usually prefer moderate light and flow. Just be careful With placing it it near other corals. They are very aggressive with long sweeper tentacles that will sting other corals around it.

^+1 Acan echinata is a overlooked coral that is amazing when grown out.

Got it for 10 or 15 at a frag swap and I couldn't remember. Thanks so much. I always have questions. I wanna do more coral but need to learn more about them.
Got the 75 in cycle right now. Haha :)
 
I also moved it down into the sand bed less flow and less lighting than it has been in so hopefully it'll smile more haha (be happy)
