I think it's a cyphastrea not a montipora.

Looks like a cyphastrea. If it has longer tenticles that come out of there, then may be a lammelosa (chalice).

[epicurus84]

100% sure it's not a monti .

i would also say +1 to Turbinaria.

sorry got it wrong on the cyphastrea, this is a scroll coral (turbinaria reniformis).
Pagoda cup or Cup Coral (turbinaria Peltata) would have much larger polyps even on a small frag.
They come in two colors, green with white polyps and a nice brown with yellow polyps. The bottom part of it gets a really bright yellow.

I am going with Turbinaria reniformis as well.
