Cyphastrea coral I think
 
It’s a species of Oxypora/ Echinophora. Cyphastrea grows either branching or plating, however, it doesn’t grow in chalice form, I don’t believe.
 
Hollywood stunner as already stated. Looks healthy too. Here's mine. Just got it about 3 weeks ago.

Watch out for this coral; it will grow and grow and grow, shading things under it and oh by the way it throws out some nasty sweepers too. Any acros close by downstream are going to get wiped, fair warning.

Fortunately it's laughably easy to frag, just break chunks off, it's like very thin crisp cracker. Heals right up within days.

This was when mine was small and relatively manageable.
