What kind of coral is this?

Colonial rugose but there's no internal detail visible to narrow it down reliably -  photos of it wetted might help.  Also, from Belgium it could be Devonian or Carboniferous.

My first guess though (from its size and general appearance) is Siphonodendron, probably S. junceum, from the Carboniferous. If Devonian, Thamnophyllum is a possibility.
