Im assuming this is a pretty basic sps ... and sorry if the pic does not do it justice. Is has a darker greenish base and carolina blue tips.

Grows like a weed and non stop ... so that is why I am curious as to just what it is exactly ...

(It is the one on the left, next to the $500 efflo .. )

I have been traveling like mad the last year and while my corals have been growing, they have not colored up to their true potential. Since being back the last 2 months and getting my #s stable and rock solid again, things are really coloring up. I am just wondering what I can expect with this and the true color.

The color with this piece has started to come back and blossom from the outer branches in ... just wondering what color I may expect all the way down to the base and if and where it might just stop, so I know that it is at it potential and not going to color up anymore ...
 
In my opinion any " basic " acro that grows like a weed is called a winner!

Ime, yes. The base always stays a greenish-tan color depending on the light. The growth tips are always a really nice blue or purple, that fade out 3/4"-1" down the branch. From what I can see, yours looks properly colored.
