I would of said oregon tort but the green is throwing me off. Although i have heard of people saying their cali torts colour up like that.
 
I'm pretty sure I have the exact same thing. I bought this at a frag swap in February, and I can't remember if the vendor told me what it was called.

Yours looks like one of the many blue-green tenuis' ....like an ORA Joe-the-Coral.
 
Its not a tenuis, morphology is quite different from tenuis, name for this color variation of what I believe to be acropora austera is miyagi "tort".
I was referring to Vette67's photo. (No comment about O.P.)

I think it's a miyagi frag. They get more tan/brown as they age. I think BattleCorals says this on their page for it. Here's mine in FEB vs now. It grows very fast:
