Not Sure What This Is Called

I was given this awhile ago when I first started my tank. No idea what it is. This is the way it looked when I got it and continues to do nothing. Thanks everyone

Not blasto; caulastrea (candy cane). Skeleton not exposed, that dark stuff is tissue. Could be deflated for a number of reasons (recently moved, etc). Here's a picture of a colony:

I target feed mine with frozen baby brine or rotifers approx every 4 days, however I think that most don't feed them. I like to try and feed everything !

Yep when they're happy they get all puffy and translucent. But it's weird not everyone in the colony and to the same extent. I have mine med light low flow.

That's where I just moved it 2 days ago.... in those parameters. It should do better now. I do see tenticle on him when the lights are out....
