Hello all, just joined the forum a few days ago but have been a long time reader since I started my first reef tank in February. I started a second tank recently and decided to go all favia, bought 12 frags and everything is going well but this guy pictured doesn't seem to be acting like the rest, always has tentacles/feeders out during the day and doesn't in general resemble the others, if someone could provide any type of info that would be great, thanks in advance!
First pic is the mystery guy, the second is the rest of the favais.

Thanks for the responses. I just fed the tank Monday. I spot feed him directly during the day since he seems to be looking to be fed. This guy tends to close up at night and the others send out a few tentacles/feeders at night. Maybe he is just a odd ball.
 
I've thought that it could be a trumpet coral myself but figured that wasn't likely, but at the end of the day I don't have a clue. Is there anything else I can provide to help with identifying it?
