Hard to tell from that pic, but it looks like an encrusting hydnopora (SPS).
Here's a few pics of mine.

Typical SPS care. High flow and good lighting.
Just don't place any coral down current and close to it. These corals are very aggressive and will put out stingers that will kill any coral it makes contact with.
I have mine isolated in a corner.

Re: Frenchie's 75 gallon build thread

75 gallon tank is doing awesome, got lots of lps, zoos, rics, chalice, brain corals. 125 gallon recovery from big hair algae problems since i tore it down for new sump and skimmer. At big cleaning crew, bunch chaeto, and a foxface which is loving all the algae. New purchases yesterday rose bubble tip anenome and duncan coral.
