Coral ID Please?

My wife picked up this frag for me, just wondering what it is? What type of flow and lighting would be best?

It looks like a Montipora digitata to me.

I say birdsnest or possibly digitata. Need a better pic of it for proper ID.

Need better pic, but does kinda look like a birdsnest.

A better picture would help, I feel like I'm taking one of those Rorschach inkblot tests!
I would lean towards Montipora digitata....or a hand reaching out to strangle me at night!

Birdsnest has pointed tips, I'm leaning towards montipora digitata. med-high flow and med light. Very easy SPS to take care of.
