I think in the particular instance of the purplish strands of coral, the outlining "is what it is". To do a smooth blended background requires a larger texture and/or larger alpha map. I'm not sure what Jim has said about this in the past. Generally Jim doesn't like to use any more than 1 or 4 shades of blending from what I have seen.
