Bought this a while back from a store that is not big on names. It's coloration has changed quite a bit, just wondering what it is (scientific and/or trade name) if there is one:

Frag: Pic does not do it justice, it is a deep red with green polyps, but also green coralites (if that is the proper term). When the polyps retract the green is still there:

If it doesn't have a name, I think you should call it; "Jesus loves me! "
@Battlecorals ? Has that name been taken yet?
 
Last call bump. Otherwise I name it and it becomes a GR (Gone Reefin’) original. 😀 at least looking for a scientific id
 
it is so blurry... you need clearer pics to help id and also try multiple pics with different lighting.

As requested...see below. I am a terrible photographer, so this is likely the best I can do:

It encrusts green, but branches are red with green at every polyp base. The green stays when I baste the polyps.
