I think that's a Stylophora. Is this the coral that you're talking about (see attachment)?
Mark, Beth & NM reef- Thank you very much for your great comments!

Nope - the one in front of that. I think you can see a little bit of it in the corner of that last attachment.

This is the one, correct? It's an A. Polystoma. The 5th picture is a closeup of the coralite structure and polyps.
Take Care,

I honestly couldn't say. Some frags that you may see, weither it may be in the genus Acroporidae, Agariciidae, Pocilloporidae, Poritidae, etc., are naturally the color brown and couldn't be colored up even if they were in the correct environment. Plus, lighting alone won't color up the corals. Water chemistry also plays an extremely important role.
Wrassecal & waterfaller1, thanks for the great words!
Mark,
Thanks! I got that one about 2 months ago. It was a light pink/purple when I got it. It's really darkened up since. I'm hoping it'll color back up when I run the Ushio's more
Take Care,
Graham
