Acropora efflorescens would be my guess.

 

[Bpynckel]

Chalice of some kind

 

[spykes]

efflo

 

[Rendos]

Oxypora???

 

[Hef]

It's got the shape of Efflo, but I dont think that's what it is.
The outside edge looks too smooth, and there are not enough polyps. Of course I could be wrong.
For Comparison, here is a good look at the edge of my Efflo. Granted, this is after a good growth spurt, an efflo that is not growing will look pretty smooth on the edge, and you should at least see signs of Polyps.

Efflo...

 

[manderx]

not an acro, check in the lps forum.

 

[Brion~]

mycedium?

 

[MacnReef]

I also think it is an LPS.

Its not a Mycedium since all eyes on a mycedium face the rim. Someone said oxypora but every Oxy I have seen has very small pimples, not the massive ones you got. the photo does not show any eyes like an enchinophyllia. Perhaps an echinomorpha? Interesting.

well i did just place it in the tank about an hour before the photo. the lfs where it was at had it in no flow under old pc lights for a few months, so it was starting to recede a good deal, so hopefully with time it will come back nicely.

i dont think that it is any type of lps because it is hard skeleton, not fleshy like a lps
