Unlabeled frag ID

Heya folks, I picked up this cute little pink ring paly/zoa from an LFS and the guy wasn’t sure whether it was a paly or a zoa (and therefore had no other info for me)

Can anyone help me with an ID? I haven’t been able to find it on my own. Here are some pictures taken under blue light with an orange filter:

They look like Armor of God.

I'm not seeing Armor of God:

They don't even look like the ones at Zoanthids.com:

@commod0re, do any of these pink ring zoas look like yours?

Honestly I’m still figuring out how to tell! None of them look exactly the same to me but I was so excited about the bright pink color that I can’t remember exactly how it looked in the store

I’d say this one looks most similar to me:

My wife also found this Armor of God that looks even more similar: https://vividaquariums.com/products/zoas-copy-1?variant=41034465902677

Here’s a fresh picture from above as well, they’re a bit more open today
