Yep, another Acro ID thread lol. I got this in one of those "mystery nub packs" a local reefer does from time to time of random stuff that gets cut or chipped accidentally. It was just a tiny patch encrusted on a 3/4" plug. I've grown it out into a colony and now I'm trying to figure out what it is. looks like BC Aquatic Man table to me but the guy I got it from has never had that in his system. He does typically trade in mostly high end acros. A lot of stuff from Cornbred. Anyways, if you have any thoughts let me know!

I have a nice colony of TSA Bill Murray grown out from a frag from one of their live sales, and the growth pattern is almost identical. It looks like it would be the same species or close, just a different color. The last picture is of my Bill Murray (top), with this mystery piece (grown separately at the same time, just harder to shoot a photo of) below it, so you can see the color difference.

Thanks for your input!

p.s. just looking for 'hobby' name here, not species id, although that would be cool too.

Evening

I am not an ID person. I am going to guess one is a Walt Disney. Not sure on the other.

Someone tonight should know for sure
 
Ooh yeah the colors are right. I’m not quite sure about the growth pattern though... I’ll ask if he ever had one in his tank
 
Looks to me like Bc aquatic man but then again they all start as wild colonies, and some vendors get the same ones and out different names on it.
 
I thought so too, but he said it he never had that one
