Blue Acro question

I got this blue acro from my LFS yesterday. They didn't know what species or if it was a deep water species. Any ideas? I've started it on the bottom in a high flow area with plans to slowly move it up towards the top

Another question. You can see two mouths clearly, one in the lower left quadrant of the coral and one in the upper right quadrant. These mouths open and close often and seem to be in an area devoid of polyps. Is this a normal coral structure or is it a hitch hiker incorporated in to the colony. I'm a rookie so please excuse if these are dumb questions.

No idea on the coral, but the "mouths" appear to be barnacles. A hitchhiker. Does it have a feathery hand that comes out, then goes back in to the mouth?
