Can anyone ID this coral?

Leather Toadstool (coloured)

Maybe, although I've never seen one that color with polyps that look like that...

Is it a soft coral, or a hard coral? If its soft, I'd lean towards a yellow leather like BigC said, but if it's hard, the polyps almoast make it look like a "Pagoda cup" coral. Then again, I've never seen a pagoda that color...
 
my LFS have these fairly regularly, they call them golden scroll coral

in the flesh they look like a type of montipora
 
OK thanks for the replies.
 
It looks like a turbinaria/pagoda coral too me,

It likes good lighting but not to direct a flow,as long as its got water passing by it to discourage detritus settling on it.
