What acro is ORA Pearlberry?

[Reefltx]

I was at my LFS earlier today and they just got in some new shipments. Browsing through their maricultured SPS section I noticed that the blue tip A. plana they had looked just like my ORA pearlberry.

What do you guys think, any idea what the ORA pearlberry may be?

I know you're confused, but that's what a sps colony looks like.

I don't know why, but this coral hates me... I've had 2 different frags brown out and and lose tissue over the years. It's probably just dumb luck, but it still makes me hesitate to try another frag.
