The seller I got it from took the picture off their website because I got the very last frag they had.

(I am still proud having this grown from a single polyp! Haha)

Of the ones I don't have, I really like the Ice Fire Echinata
I can change that - the fact that you don't have it...

Plating corals are really nice. All three would make fine additions to a tank.

Online Sellers often take their pictures in blue lighting to bring out the colors, and unfortunately, so not disclose that to buyers, so they never get what thy pay for. Always look for blue substrate, or a blue cast on fingers holding the frags, or blue cast on eggcrate. These are the giveaways of a heavily blue T5 or Actinic LED shot.

Some Sellers also play with saturation on their pictures as well.

When you get ready for some SPS, LMK and I'll fix you up with a nice frag of Tyree Soli, a plating coral very similar to the one in your pic.

I recently got a frag of the below Bubblegum Millipora, but it was quite dull upon arrival....it has been under LED's for a week and the tips have now started coloring blue and I think I am see the pink hue starting to turn in the body. This is one of my SPS I am excited about right now....

Some that are at the top of my list as far as the coloration is concern are Oregon Tort, GARF, RA Blue millie, Rommel Rainbow acro, IceFire Enchinata, ORA Pearlberry, ORA Red Planet, Atlantis Christmas Mirabillis just to name a few.
If you don't care about the name, then any acro with color conbination of purple, pink, yellow, blue, green and red would be the WOW sps in my opinion.

I prefer the color and growth pattern over the LE name, however it seems most of the frags I like due to color and growth pattern have an LE name. I did have a no-name Tri-color that was my favorite some time ago....RIP.

I think I need to find a yellow SPS frag ASAP.

What is the name of the 2nd picture? I got a frag of it probably a month ago and cant remember the name.
 
Its like shopping member tanks! :D

But completely agree about orange Acros. PLEASE let me know if you ever decide to frag this up!!! In general it seems like everything is Blue, Green or Purple.

That is a shot of the small colony I got a frag from. I just have a grow out frag at the moment, so it will be a while :D

Yeah I figured as much. But still... VEERRRYY interested. I'd like my next setup to have a lot of vibrant colors, reds, purples, yellows, etc. Still wish that red sponge with the little yellow sun coral polyps on it would have made it. That things was the coolest addition I've ever put in my tank... followed very closely by the blue spot.
