So whats the difference between these two? could someone post some pics of these two? I seen some really purple coral beauties with barely any orange and the other one I see has orange and not as purple. Thanks

Coral beauty's have a lot of variation in amount of purple and pattern, but I'm not aware that Tonga vs. Fiji are significantly different based on location alone. Perhaps the fish store is just naming source, as some sources have better survival than others?
