Funny I got a small piece myself of the same kind...like a reddish with yellow tips?

How much did he sell it to you for? Yes it is an Indo coral. If you can take pics with the blues on, do so I can see the colors as it is hard to see from the pics. Red center, yellow polyps, right?

Looks more like an Alveopora than a goni. Then again I can't actually make out how many tentacles each polyp has

Yes it is red center yellow poly ops, I’ll go check one more time just to make sure. $75 at a frag swap. He said he sold one at his shop the day before for $150
