If its the joker torch on the bottom left ... that would not be classified as rare

Maybe I'm not seeing it or the color isn't coming through, but that looks kind of like just a regular brown torch with cream/yellow tips. Maybe $40 a head. Sorry that your torch isn't a first-of-its-kind $600 specimen. It's okay to not be happy that a coral you bought isn't what you're hoping for, but calling people "AI haters" for pointing it out is pretty immature, IMO.

IMO looks like the basic brownish green torches that go for $30-$40 a polyp. I don’t see blue or pink but what do I know.

upload your tanks under white light. No manipulation let’s see those colors come through

I love the natural look of lower kelvin lighting.
6500k t5s and kessils on their whitest setting.

Looks good very nice.
It proves my point to other commenters about expecting colors in torches under white light though. Everything will always look brown or lack of color

Besides greens

Don’t have a filter just ordered one. Same torches AUSSI green pink tip and blue torch pink tip.

I can see it now. Does it look sort of like this one from Corals Anonymous? They're calling it an "ultra pink tip green torch". I've seen torches somewhat like that before, they were about 100$ at my old LFS. Not terribly common, but not super expensive either. Pretty good coral.

Priceless never seen before definitely never consider selling. 1B a head for sure. Super exclusive and rare turbo rare even.

No it's a purple torch with pink ish tips.

Coloration difference is light and nutrition based.

Some may be fooled and but for $500 head or something outrageous.

Nice coral it’s a very close resemblance, better than what most shared and posted so thanks for that.
There’s no green hues though. I went on the website and checked the other images and for this coral you shared and it doesn’t have those other colors throughout the tentacles.
And I’m assuming this is under white light.
Close but missing other colors through out the tentacles
