Trumpet coral! Pretty easy. You can feed them a mysis shrimp and watch them eat. I have a green one at the highest spot in the tank and it's happy there.

That's a good plan. Slowly move him up till you like where he's at. I think they are also called candy cane corals. They are fairly hardy so yits a great beginner coral.

Correct ID on the candy cane/ trumpet.

Among the easiest stony corals to keep, IME.
