In the hobby, known as a open brain coral, green in colour but comes in a mix of green and red. Looks good to me now, leave on the substrate, it will fill with water and expand, and sometimes contract, see the little hairs standing up, these capture food in the column, I target feed mine with a turkey baster, all flow off, with frozen brine shrimp in water, just leave a little on the top in the middle by the mouth for half an hour.
