Anyone care to take a stab at what this SPS could be?
Purple skin with greenish/yellowish polyps.
Skin will turn dark greenish as it shows signs of growth.

Does the old growth turn greenish with the tips purple/blue or is it the tips that turn green with growth?
 
Skin changes from purple to green...no yellow
here's another pic of the other one I have which is growing really good.

Was thinking potentially there might be a slim chance it’s a Bali tricolor but the growth patterns / color looks more like a bonsai.
 
Is this in a store or in your tank? Looks like bonsai or tri color acro to me. If it was fragged, sometimes the colony can grow back weird, might explain the thicker appearance.
 
Oh Yes I see definitely secale coral. I do have a bonsai and its slightly different.
