Hello all!

Looking for an ID, placement and any particular care for this coral, please. The coral has small, “flower like” polyps. It is not retracted in the pictures and it is white.

Thanks!

wow it could be any of those two above. But it also looks like a branching goni to me
 
Goniopora is another slim possibility, but I'd lean towards Porites as well
 
I would like to change my vote to porites.
 
Alveopora or Porites
 
Thanks for the input!

It looks like a little browning towards the back on top, you can see it in first pic. At the store, it was in a shallow tank, on the bottom with LED lighting. I have it on the bottom of my tank, 90 gallon with T5/LED. It’s in a low flow area. Do you think it needs more light?
