Coral ID please.

A friend of mine bought me a few pieces of live rock( not sure she knew what she was buying). Anyways attached to one is a coral that i am not sure what it is. Would love to know ASAP so i can take care of it properly. Was kinda shriveled and ugly looking when i got it, 4 hours in tank and its open up very nicely, anyways heres its pic. Thanks for the help.

looks like Capnella aka Kenya tree to me something like Nepthea; it should be easy to keep.
