It may be Acanthastrea echinata, or some sort of chalice. The leftmost polyp looks more like echinata though.
 
Hard to tell from the picture. I agree that either a chalice or an echinata. Both can be aggressive Coral and both like lower flow. Echinata like low light. Some chalices prefer med light but do okay in low light.
