At first look I thought that it was hollywood stunner, but looking closer it almost looks like a scroll coral. Does the flesh raise up before the polyp? Are the polyps on top of raised little hills like?

Mine did. Try to target feed chopped mysis. If it's a stunner it'll eat it

I think you nailed it. It is very similar to an LA Lakers scroll coral. I have a Hollywood stunner and it's much lighter
 
My 1st stunner was dark like the picture but my second was a lot lighter. I think it depends on the system and lighting.

The polyps growing out from the rim in a horizontal orientation also lead me to my scroll coral belief
 
This indeed looks like Turbinaria reniformis, as a couple have mentioned. Doesn't look like an Echinophyllia sp.
