Could this be a Spanish Shawl?

No the shawl is a nudi branch that looks like a soft coral of some sorts.

What is it then? It has moved like three or four times and I have very low flow on this tank as I just set it up to cycle.

It is in the very center of the picture. It is glowing pinkish orange on the tips. I don't have a professional camera sorry.

Kenya tree coral keep in mind that this coral will also seem to move about your tank and colonize new areas by dropping branches and attaching to the substrate.
