as above had this sps for a while now it was a solid green blob which I thought about selling as I have very little room left then a few months back it started growing out and changing colour.
just wondering if anyone can help with an id?

Yea looks nice! Not sure what it is I am not good with smooth skinned ids. I always keep any green smooth skinned pieces because they almost always color up and show nice colors.
I have one I have been growing for 3 years that I got from a friend that was maricultured when he got it. It’s been a brown blob for most of the time, showed me blue tips where new growth started at one point so I have kept it hoping it takes off at some point. It’s like a 5” colony that never took off and was grown from a nub so I am trying to get it going. My luck I would sell it and it would take off in the next tank and be beautiful.
 
Looks like a nice piece. Possibly A. Loripes or A. Rosaria
the bottom half says loripes but the new growth at the top says different [emoji2369]. might be one I'll have to wait for it to grow into a colony.

I have done it with a few pieces some turn out good and some not so good. iv had this probably 18months now and only in the last 4/5months its grown and coloured.
