Pic inside the water and open may help. Could be a carnation coral
 
It's gotta be litophyton, just saw ton of photos and looks very similar. @fragit thanks, and thanks everyone
Looks just like my yellow litophyton when it’s closed up. I’m not seeing any photos of that coral actually in water as you’ve indicated a couple times. Am I missing something?

The photo on the opening page I took just before putting coral in the display tank. These corals were added to NPS corals I picked up yesterday late late at night from a trans shipper of corals. They need lighting
