Now I do believe TSA exquisita stag and the battle stag are the same. They both look identical after seeing it at TSA in person

He was good, and still is good (in a much more clownish and limited capacity) at taking the credit... for sure.

Here is my experience with the Greg Carroll Ultimate Stag... years ago under 10k and 14k lighting, it was baby blue center with darker blue corallines and only green on the very tips. The top of mine is in about 550-600 PAR right under a 14k Phoenix. With the many that I have given away or sold, they get a lot more green under lower intensity lighting and look almost identical to the Battlestag.
If it is very similar, or the same, then I can use this space for a something else. Thanks for all of the replies.

14K Phoenix was my bulb of choice back then. That and 250w radium. I was running 2 Radiums and 3 Phoenix altenating on a tank that was only 6' long. The colony was sitting in between them. I was getting similar PAR numbers (maybe even a tad but higher) as you have reported and also hit it with heavy flow as it was near the center section of the tank.

Here is an early shot of my Tyree/ GC Ultimate blue .................I could only get the green coralites and rings where it was getting high light.
Looking good Ed! Got any recent shots of it? This thing is such a beauty and all I ever see is pictures of frags. Hoping to let this thing grow into the centerpiece of my tank.

The coral got too big and I completely cut it down and am now growing a new one from a piece I kept. It's only 3" with one main branch.
I went through my old pics and the only shots of the colony are far away and non descript

Here are some other archive pics I've kept...........the light blue on the tyree always seems to be throughout the branch more and with more spaced out coralites. Every time I see vendor pics the growth areas are more compact and less blue of the other versions like the battlestag.

My @gcarroll is nicely turning into a centerpiece in my tank with color so bright I can’t capture it well straight on or from the top. Getting nice bright baby blue base and green tips at ~250mmol under t5. You can see it in the background here.
@Battlecorals cam you hit us with a colony pic of the Battlestag for science??

Here’s my Tyree Ultimate Blue stag.
Are we talking about something different?
This was the only coral in my tank that I didn’t have an ID for. If it’s not this…it is extremely close! Let me see if I have a pic.
Horrible pic, but when I have the lights at 20K it looks identical to yours.
