I couldn't tell you if it comes from "Deep" water or not, but I can give you a few guesses on some species to start looking at.

Acropora caroliniana http://coral.aims.gov.au/factsheet.jsp?speciesCode=0015
Acropora lokani http://coral.aims.gov.au/factsheet.jsp?speciesCode=0621
Acropora willisae http://coral.aims.gov.au/factsheet.jsp?speciesCode=0080

The second is also too small to say for sure. It could be Acropora millepora, but the tips seem too small. At that size it could equally be A. prostrata also which wil develop longer thinner branches.

If it grows into a stag it could be A. pulchra.
