Found this locally just wondering if anyone has a name for it? I haven't seen this online at all really and even tried googleing the color combo and found nothing. It is a pale purple but has bright yellow polyps. It does seem to be a cap best I can tell, but could have just been grown over top of a dead cap I suppose.

I can't find a "name", but I assume it is a Montipora capricornis. They come in purple, green, brown, and red and are known to have yellow/neon green polyps.
 
Yup looks like supernatural. Maybe it's just a bit faded. From Google it looks like someone just made up the starry night name on RC but the pics are gone.
