That is a nice montipora capricornus( I presume). It has a nice deep purple hue while mine own monti cap is lighter purple. I just love those small purple polyps that come out when they are happy. That looks like a wild acro colony. Good luck with them- give them lots of flow and good lighting along with quality water and they should be ok.

I do believe the acro should color up but check in the sps forum. When I did Sps the monticaps were my favorite. To me they seem the fastest growing
