Looks like Seriatopora Hystrix - Birdsnest.
 
Looks like a birds nest
 
Also looks like it is dead in a many areas. May want to trim/frag it a bit so algae does not take hold. These guys can do pretty well in most tanks. Lots of light and good flow. Steady parameters too.
 
Thanks for the replys, it was nt looking great when I got it, it was free, most of it was bleached.
Over the last couple of weeks it's starting to gain colour, so I,very just left it were it is, see what happens.
