I found a nice piece of live rock with some copper banded coral on it. The guy at the store thought it was some rare sponge with an N name but he couldn't remember.

Looks like a leptoseris of some sort. What are your parameters and what lighting is it under?

+1 LEPTO, looks just like mine
it grows fast i bought a 20$ frag and while removing from plug i broke it into 4 little dime size pieces(oops), put them at all different intensity lighting areas to see what it liked better and i now have 4 over half dollar size frags about 2 months later-it doesnt seem to care where it is(flow/light/etc.)
