kinda look like anthelia to me, but i could be wrong. The best thing for any coral to keep colors up is the proper lighting, What kind of lighting is over your tank? Most often when coral is white its been bleached from high water temps or not enough light. this info would help us help you along with a shot of the coral closed up so we can see the structure beneath the polyp heads
