It kinda looks like it’s having some trouble. Looks like skeleton is exposed.

yep. the guy i got it from had a lot of hair algae and water problems. He lost his hammer coral, one clownfish, and this coral was looking brown when he gave it to me. I have been watching it to see if it will make it. parts are gone but i have hopes for the rest of it. That is why i was trying to id it, so maybe i could help it if i knew exactly what it is.

Stable parameters and good nutrient balance and it should recover in no time!
