Or at least was sold as one. E. glabrescens or E. cristata? Can't see any septae but it hasn't been retracted since out of the bag.

Video....enough flow/too much flow.

 
It doesn't look unhappy, so I am assuming that is good flow. When I had flow like that in my tank, my hammers and frogspawn weren't very happy so I had to lower it. But every coral is different, even amongst the same species. But yours looks happy. Where did you get it? LFS or online?
 
Looks to be a one headed Aussie Torch. Give it some time. The tentacles will get longer and open more as time goes on and the coral acclimates. Medium flow is good for now..... Flow in video looks good...

Do you see any white flesh on the sides of the Skeleton?

Also your Duncans look super healthy and open fully... You torch will most likely follow suit....

No white flesh, just a row of smaller diameter tentacles. I've had that duncan a few years. Started as two heads...I don't know how many now. It doesn't seem to grow long branches just short ones with lots of new heads off of them.
