Thank you for avery answer!
Unfortunately can't match it with the Meteor Shower Coral - Cyphastrea , the coral I have, like I see isn't encrusting like the MS do, it's growing like LR on volume. The base is toxic (like) green, and the polyps are bright orange (when I see them a bit extended). Also the polyps on the base on the surface are flat, isn't like this at all.

When they are in, you can't see where are they at all (it's looking like nice green smoothed surface, which is hard on touching. when it's out of the water it's slimming constantly and during any DIP as well.
The polyps are coming out on top of the surface of the coral like little flowers (similar to the MS coral), but are extending only/near 1/2mm (max 1mm)
I keep the frags under high light at the moment(near the surface of the water and higher flow), I'll move one of them under lower light now and lower water flow to see the response.
Please another suggestions ?
