I got this coral as a freebie from AquaSD, but I'm not sure what it is. Also, is it doing alright? Not sure what my expectations should be.

I'll check calcium and other levels. So this is how it should look? Heat are signs that it is unwell?

The skeleton is visible indicating it has some tissue recession. As long as water and lighting are good it should recover.

Thank you very much, I'll check the water chemistry and make sure that the light seems good for it. Here's hoping!
 
Merulinidae sp. Either Favites, Goniastrea, or Coelastrea. Would need a clearer photo to ID.
