white branches, orange polyps, what is it?

Hi guys,

Can someone please tell me what this is, and what conditions it might need. I don't have much experience with hard corals. Is this bleached or is this just the color that it is? It seems to have good polyp extention. Thanks Guys!

Looks like a m. digitata to me. It looks a little browned out. Needs proper alk, calcium and mag, medium flow, and medium light. Fast grower.

It is an orange digitata. The tips with newer growth tend to come in white and color up later. This from my experience is totally normal.
