Had this a while but recently fragged the main colony and kept a frag back after selling the mother. Long story but it's never been that great as with a lot of my coral for about 2 years due to high metals ( Zn and Cu mostly )

But since I rectified the problems it's took off and started to get some weird colours. First it was a yellow stripe right down the middle and now purple.

Definitely don't think that's normal. Looks like it has a bit of a graft going.

That's my thought too but has to be protein infection because it hasn't been near any other coral since I've had it in 5 years.
 
Corals can have weird colors when zoox is fleeing or coming back. It has always been my experience that they end up going back to what they "should" be, even if it is to our disappointment.
