Changing color in octospawn corals

I've noticed my branching octo's tips changing from green to purple. Is this a normal thing? The coral's extension looks great during the day, but this pic is from evening ramp down.

Does this look like a healthy octo to you guys?

I'm new to corals and just want to make sure they do well.

I've got the same piece, it's a splatter or bicolor octospawn, looks pretty normal to me, nice Euphyllia by the way.
