Can anyone tell me what kind it is and more about this coral

 

[jraker]

Acanthastrea lordhowensis. Easy LPS coral to take care of, but they are aggressive towards other corals. They like lower to moderate light and a gentle flow.

How far away from other corals should it be?

 

[jraker]

Some people say 6 inches but I have mine a little closer to other corals. Depends on if they are stinging other corals. But 6 inches is a good rule To follow.
