Nice piece! It looks like A. lokani to me. A. granulosa tend to have thicker branches and the axial corallites don't usually have the uniformed tubular shape that your coral exhibits. Just my thoughts though..

It's not really deep water. Just smooth skinned acros.

That's my favourite coral!.
The cream turns green in higher nutrients/ lower light. It look perfect when it's cream with blue/purple tips.

Nice work!.
