Sorry for crappy picture. What type of coral is this and does it have a name. Also what would be the price for a frag. I got this in a tank breakdown but don't know where I should I place it in the tank. Thanks ahead of time.

Chalice I think. And the name is subjective, as we well know vendors will quite often put some pet name on it.

Resembles a plating hydnophora to me but could be the blurry picture. Not sure on vendor name or price
