any idea what this piece is?

Some sort of a smooth skin acro?

Looks like rosaria maybe. In my head there is a continuous spectrum between rosaria, loripes, and granulosa that varies with branch length and the space between corallites.

However this also varies with the growing conditions so you can really only compare when grown out side by side.

that could very well be the correct species, wow thanks!
My friend was so "dumb" and did now frag the whole colony into smaller frags..

I was interested to get the whole colony ;/

I absolutely agree with what Therman said. And even in those three species, there seem to be spectra of variance.
