Some sort of cup coral or plate?

Looks like a hydnophora to me. Medium light and flow and it should be happy.

I dont remember that type of hydnophora having actual sweeper tentacles when I had but it could through some messenterial filaments a good distance to digest others corals and was pretty aggressive which is why I got rid of it down the road. Beautiful coral though.
