Montipora sp. Hard to tell at such a small size. Possible Spongodes, Confusa, or Danae. Check back after it gets a bit bigger.

Yep, a montipora species. As it grows, you may have more luck getting a species name, but it looks good.

As I stated earlier, it could be a couple of different things, Confusa being the most likely (IMO)... here's a pic of mine :
