which rock are you talking about? If you are talking about the pink/ orangish at the bottom, that is Sun Coral. You have to feed each polyp daily or every other day.
 
Yes the tubular skeleton with the orange tissue is Tubastraea, AKA Sun Coral a non-photosynthetic stony coral.
WoRMS - World Register of Marine Species - Tubastraea Lesson, 1829

They can be difficult to care for because of all the "hands on" feeding which resulting in extra cleaning and maintenance to the aquarium. Check these thread out.
