look like a lot of the greens that have been coming in lately, all similar in appearance with slight variants in pattern and secondary colors
I don't know why but it reminds me of a yellow jacket. Maybe it might be some kind of variation??
Two hour drive? That won't cost me very much in gas!! I guess I'll just have to enjoy the pics. that are nice!butts - you can make the 2 hour drive and visit them any time, if you like
couldn't tell you one way or the other but they are nice

I second the Billy Clubs ID. I had some before that looked looked pretty much the same.
While they appear to have the watermelon striping on the polyps, I'm not seeing the vivid green mouth that should be there in order for them to be a PE. That means they are either not a PE or your colors as they are showing in the photo are off. If the mouth indeed is green, than so is the surrounding polyp, and I second the Green PE. If the colors are true, then by definition you do not have a PE polyp. The Billy Club or Great Gatsby is more of a greyish blue polyp than your picture shows, sometimes with purple, but I've never seen them with yellowish green.
It definitely has a defined green PE mouth. The hue of the green mouth is actually able to be differentiated from the green on the oral disc.
As far as my ID goes, I would lean towards a well morphed 'Gatsby' PE. There is a yellow variant of the Gatsby. Here is one that Coral Morphological offered. This one isn't nearly as well colored as your frag, but you can see these polyps do have the yellowing in all the right places.
