This coral arrived as an orange/red soft coral. Can anyone

Its grown about 1/2 inch in the 4 weeks we've had it. Its also sent off an offshoot to the left hand side that has 6-8 feeding polyps that open on it. It had been doing well in a lowlight tank so I put it under a rock overhang in my tank. Anyone have any ideas?

I can't be 100% sure but I would say that is Scleronephthya which is a low-light coral and is normally found hanging upside down in caves with good current. Feedings of rotifers and a tank heavy with zooplankton are a must.
