Could you please I.D. this coral for me? (The one to the right of the purple cap)

Thank you.

Montastrea sp.

I won this piece at a raffle yesterday at Next Wave 2006 in Dallas. The Vendor said it was an Acan but today was told by a pretty experienced aquarist that he didn't think it was an Acan. (But he couldn't ID it either) lol

Montastrea sp, for sure. is it red/green?

 

[water`bug]

Nope, it's more orangey with deep reddish marroon centers. They are almost perfectly round.

 

[water`bug]

Need to find out for sure so I'll know how to care for it.

Please help.
