SPS heads, need an ID

I bought a frag of this for $5 at MCF a LONG time ago, needless to say it's ahell of a slow grower. The pics are not great, but it's sorta reminds me of a spongodes, except the green is way more electric and the polyps aren't as fluffy and very dark maroon

In comparison, I got this SPS as a 1 inch frag from MCF back in the day from the show tank, so it was probably a $20-30 frag, the growth is crazy comparatively

Nice flame wrasse and regal . There is another coral that looks like spongdoids but different name i can remember but i know someone one here has mentioned it before . Im sure they will chime in
 
Thank! I have a male and female, once of my fav purchases! the regal has been nipping my clams, but I think he's getting bored with them...

yeah, I have a spongodes, it grows like a wildfire, until I got some monti eating nudies.

here's a pic from at least a year ago, the colors show a bit better and you can see it's not grown at all from the pics I took today.

thanks reefer, it looks closer to a confusa, but the base is mostly a dull purple with dark maroon polyps, then the brilliant green pokes out at the top. I'm pretyt sure I've had this little frag for close to two years and barely any growth.
