Does anyone know what kind of coral this is?

Alveopora for sure

While it isn't a soft coral, I agree it is definitely Alveopora.

It's a stony coral, a hard coral. Yup definitely Alveopora, 12 tentacles per polyp head.

Crap I meant it isn't soft. It's Scleractinia, no idea how I wrote the opposite.

Since I know you know your stuff I knew it a dyslexic moment silly goose!!!!!!!!!

Now back to your regularly scheduled coral discussion. Alevopora a large polyp stony coral is relatively hardy as long as you provide the same conditions you would for any other stony coral, maintenance of values Ca/alk/magnesium. Alevopora is certainly easier to keep than Goniopora. Mod flow and lighting.
