sorry for such a poor picture. I have this in my 20g in high flow and under 4 t5HOs

The LFS couldn't stick even a type to it, I saw it in the frag rack stuck between two chalices and it looked black with neon green polyps. Kept the neon green, but is purple/brown not black haha. Any clues as to what type of coral it might be? Scientific name would be better than the "given name"
 
Thanks, it didn't look like it was growing "points" like a normal acro thought it would have been some kind of monti of some sort, you never really know haha
 
looks like a bonzai

The Bonsai Acro was originated at G.A.R.F. So anything with the exact lineage to that colony they had can be respectivally called Bonsai. Anything else is a fake in my book. So yeah it looks like it could have been G.A.R.F Bonsai, or resemble it just by the two colors.

If you are looking for a actually species name i couldn't even guess. It is too small and there are no branches or corallites or growth to really go by. I would wait and let it develope more if you want a more accurate ID.
