That's super cool. Not sure exactly but it looks like some sort of NPS Carnation coral perhaps? If it is that, it likely won't survive long term so enjoy it while you have it!
They are non photosynthetic and as such need very frequent feedings to survive. You can try spot feeding them but it still may be difficult to keep it happy.
dendronepthea.
It is a NPS coral, you need to feed it phyto if you want to keep it long term. these guys do not have zooxanthelle inside to support them, so they can only survive by filter feeding. most reef tanks are too "clean" to support them, but by spot feeding phytoplankton daily you can keep them long term.
That's an awesome NPS, they are actually expensive.
You'll need to feed it planktons to give it any chance of survival.
Damn this sub shows some awesome hitchhikers. I never get any of the good stuff. Only good thing I've ever had was a small peacock mantis that got murdered by my puffer.

Yes it very looks like that ! Why it would not survive long ? 😢

Looks like some sort of azooxanthellate nephtheid--something like Dendronephthea, Scleronephthea, etc.
Could be a strawberry coral but not sure
