Yes. Thats what the photo looks like... It does not resemble a scolymia, australis or vitensis.

Not a Scoly!!!

Placement and flow? Since it's not a scoly it might need to be moved

That is for sure a brain coral young wellso or flat brain these are what scolymia look like

 

[kacrocorals581]

Just leave on sand bed for placement or bottom half of aquarium on a rock how much did you pay I hope I was not scolymia pricing

 

[SenseiSays]

Not terrible scolymia retail generally from 150 plan color up to a grand for extreme colors. And I've seen wellso brains you size from. 60 to 85 retail so not bad

 

[kacrocorals581]

So for a wellso brain you paid about right just make sure they didn't charge you 200 scoly price for it and nice looking coral by the way!

What kind of flow?

Take care if just like a scoly pretty much

That is 100% a Wellso coral. They like medium light on the sandbed and low to medium flow. They will also take supplemental feedings. I have about 10 of them I am a wellso nut.

Does it look alright for flow? Also could I place it next to other corals or give it plenty of room like frogspawn, torches etc...

Looking okay? Is it normal for it to shrink in certain areas like that when's ghats go off?
