Got this one as a bonus from vivid aquariums. Being new to the hobby I'm having trouble IDing. Based on some research could be lepastrea, but it hasn't opened up really so not sure how to care for it.

Pic dont work.:(
 
Thanks for the suggestion. I had never even heard of Cyphastrea. Doing some research now. Some do look just like this while others look way different. This truly is an amazing hobby.
 
I gave it a Lugol's dip and moved it to the top of my rockwork yesterday. It opened up a decent amount today and I got a better picture.
