Oh no. Not this again. I still remember that one WWC Live Sale where for several hours it was just back and forth: "It's a Zoa." "No, its a Paly" "No!! Its a Zoa!!" "PALY!!!!" "ZOA!!!"... the horror...

But seriously, can't tell with out a decent side shot of the stem/base of the coral, as from qhat I have repeatedly seen on here, Palys have sand/substrate particulates incorporated into its base. Looks pretty though.

Yeah I'm not arguing if it's either, just want to know the variety!
 
Looks like space Monster or Mr Freeze zoa.

Found a very similar looking coral if not the same from vivid aquariums, they're calling it Hawaiian Zoas
 
I have these exact ones, They are called Hawaiian ding dang palythoas, they can change their color intensity based on location and lighting in the tank, I struggled to ID them at first too but im positive I have the same ones as you! Hope this helps.
