How to id danae

I recently got a cultured Monti colony
It has a purple base (under sunlight) and bright blue base in a tank (with actinic, 20K)....14K and Actinic is still pretty blue.
Brown polpyps....not plating and not branching....more column form
How can I tell if it is a danae or not....(I like it regardless it is or not...if it is, it is just a bonus)
 
Usually Danae has very large verrucae (bumps) and the polyps are small. Also, each polyp has 12 "fingers". Most brightly colored species such as Superman and Rainbows are not really Danae in my opinion. They have larger polyps and only 10 "fingers". Just my observation and opinion.
