Yup, I have the same coral. Its a Turbinaria sp. Very hardy & easy to keep. The polyps extend out a few days after I move it and those polyps are large (almost overlapping).

It is definately Turbinaria. Most likely T.frondens or T.patula & is commonly referred to as Pagoda cup.

+1 on that.
Great looking piece,

The coral right above the blue/ orange acan is a cup coral, once open the polyps look like fuzzy fleshy plump little stars and there really easy to target feed.
