Best bet is to track down where it came from. It's almost impossible to tell the 20+ species apart. One of the reasons they've been so problematic over the decades as most species have very specific requirments and onle a few being cosmopolitan and found in a range of environmental conditions.

It's usually impossible to ID Goniopora to the species level without skeletal analysis.
