Unless I'm mistaken this one of mine is also a Pavona. Cool coral, quite hardy and not as demanding for flow as other SPS I have. Can be a bit aggressive and send out 1" sweepers if another coral grows too close.

the pavona group is one cool group of corals, so many different species and colors that go mostly overlooked.

I also say it looks to be pavona (sp) and yes they are cool but give it some room as they can often develop sweepers that will kill other surrounding sps.
