That does not look alive to me. If you look at the tubes, each one should have a small white polyp that comes out of it. At the very least you should have a small bump inside the tube showing that there is a polyp inside it. I think the one you have is Tubipora musica (pipe organ coral).

It does look dead, polyps are kinda greyish, little bumps, shame on LFS for selling to your wife, she should take it back!
