A buddy of mine gave me a frag of this. It is called pavona-maldevensis. It grows like a montipora.

Low light and lots of flow are key. They'll melt under bright light.
 
I have some of the green/neon green version. Came as a small hitchiker on a zoanthid rock and has grown to about 5"x4" in a year. Mine is actually half way up the tank under t5 and in high flow.
 
Nice pice, Perry. I've got a small frag in the bottom of my 125, almost hidden, but everyone that comes over mentions the orange maldivensis. It and the setosa:).
 
That coral been around a long time now.I got mine from Eddie Hansen when he had Tropical Paradise.And that was years ago.
 
Here's a bad pic of my green one. It's about 5" long, so it'll give you an idea of what to expect from your orange one.
