If I'm not mistaken it's a goniopora, although, for a moment or two I thought it may be an alveopora but now I don't think so... I believe they like moderate to high light, medium current and yes phytoplankton is probably the food of choice. A hard coral to keep, usually they slowly receed and finally die after a few months in the aquarium.

Maybe someone else can give you better information.

if thats a flower pot, (goniapora) it needs to be feed directly with phytoplankton at least once a week but more often would be better, I find they also like mysis oil, when you feed mysis dont rinse it, they like high nutrient water and need low mild gently swaying current, the do well under vho,pc, and halides, they dont need really intense light
if that specimen is around 4" long, it should be around 7-8" diameter when extended...
