What is the name and type of coral in the middle behind the flame angel?

I have a spot where that would work perfect.

I like the shape but I would like something red, orange or yellow. Any suggestions?

Thanks, Can they be added to a LPS tank, (do they require different water parameters) ? My tank is all lps but the way it's working out is I have 1 island that the lps do not like the top of. I think it may be too much water flow or lighting, not sure which one. But it looks like this coral would do quite well up there as far as lighting and flow as long as the parameters for lps will meet it's need.

Really like the looks of it.

Assuming your parameters are within reason, you shouldn't have any problems adding one of these corals to a predominantly LPS reef.

As far as lighting and flow goes, they're not to particuliar about the lights, but they do seem to appreciate the flow. GL.
