Neither Acro or Monti. There is a good chance that it is Stylophora pistillata, which can grow in various thicknesses.

ORA has a purple one that looks like this called their ORA Purple Sylophora. If yours has that black spike frag plug then it would be that variant.

Ahh yes stylish now I remember when my LFS had these a while ago thanks. It doesn't have the acrylic plug but the guy I got it from may very well have the ORA variant.
