wait.. this is an sps? discard my comment then :/
 
Yeah looks like cyphastrea, will be able to tell better with polyps out. Cyphastrea is a sps coral and it does grow in a plate form but its not montipora. Cyphastrea has larger polyos that are spaced out more. Montipora capricornis has more, smaller polyps that are normally spaced close together.
