That looks to me just like the original Cali tort. It should be a deep purple/blue with purple polyps. I have the acro named by Scott Berman all those years ago, and it shows a little green under my t5s, but for the most part it's sold purple just like your version. Same growth formation as well.
ya well I tried...hahaha. I'm pretty sure that Dave(250G) discovered it but it could be exactly the same as the cali for all I know.

Here is one that I picked up as a wild that RTNed on me and sat as a brown blob for years....than one day it came back with a vengance. I call it the Northern Delight....

Awesome corals Darryl! The Northern delight looks really similar to a piece I have from Wet thumbs.

Not sure how rare it is but it has a really cool growth pattern. Here is a top down. It's the one on the right.
