Not sure if this is a good enough picture, my phone struggles with the blues. It is taken under approx 14k light.
Bought this about 3.5 months ago and looked to be DOA when I got it (second pic) but kept it in the tank to be sure. The tips are a little bluer and the polyps a bit more of a light tangerine color. It is still coloring up, just how far it's come in the time I've had it.

Color as of a wek ago

It has come back really nice, I’m not an expert but it looks to me as Joe The Coral Acro.

Joe The Coral Acro seems to have very dark green polyps, where this one is more of a oragne/yellow polyp. Like I say my phone Camara doesn't show the colors completely true and I don;t use any color correcting software so that's as good as I can get. lol

Looks exactly like my Joe the Coral.

Does your have the orange ish polyps? I only ask as all the images that come up on a google search are green polyps. Be nice to put a name on it. :)

They're definitely not dark green. Orange/yellow/green-ish. Is that a color? Lol.

No green at all Orange/yellow right now with brighter blue tips with a bright yellow ring around the polyp <- can't remember what that is called. lol
