It's not a color variant.I've seen multiple colors called tigers..Is it (A) polyp tentical length? Is it (B) the location it's collected?? or is it (C) just a ploy to get top dollar for a coral that is not rare at all...
 
tiger torches usually have fat tentacles like aussie torches maybe it is a aussie torch who knows i don't really like the tiger torches myself i like the thin long tents
 
They have markings on them that resemble tiger stripes, hence the name.

It's a torch that someone asks more money for :face-with-tears-of-joy:
 
Agree with C. They tend to be shorter tentacled with green and yellow colouring.
 
I think its both shorter tentacle and 2 colors of striping. ASD has purple and gold striped with short tentacles they are calling tiger
