    Looks very pale and could be a Caulastrea furcata aka Candycane there are several different looking corals in this family and all look a little alike then some look totally different .

    Or maybe a weak Nemenzophyllia turbida aka Fox coral And these corals alos have different looking sub species with in their family

    More I look at that first picture its a candy cane and or what some would call a trumpet coral.
