Check out http://whelk.aims.gov.au/coralsearch/coralid_search.php and look at the different species of Madracis, Oculina and Schizoculina.

Does it have polyps?

If it has no color and it's and Acorpora then you might have problems. The coralites look pretty large in the pictures. How large is the colony?
