Need urgent coral ID please

Hmm , I saw something with zip tie, I did it yesterday as it was coming loose, and it looked like it will hold yesterday, but today bother issue:

It looks like it’s literally tearing it self apart where zip tie is. (And no I didn’t over tighten it).
Could you perhaps link that YouTube video?
I got a reef superglue too, I was thinking to try that as it seems like it will tear apart fully , to glue it standing up from the tear, then place it in breeder box for a weaker flow until it strengthens a bit? Thanks
I agree it looks like one of the common “tree” corals, possibly a Kenya.
When it’s polyps are opening or closing does it look somewhat like this?

And a zoomed out photo of one of the two main “stalks” on the tree (That lights are just ramping up at the minute - I’ll try get a photo of it fully extended at some point this week as it’s only the first day in my 4’ tank).
