I got this acro from a friend...
He said it had yellow tips that are little gametes that drop off when disturbed.

What kind of acro is it?

It's yellow tip with greenish blue body. My frag doesn't have the yellow tips.

Pics attached....

Boy I am so curious about this statement "He said it had yellow tips that are little gametes that drop off when disturbed." Ask your friend to clarify please.

If you could get an image of the mother colony or a top down it might help with an accurate ID.

Looking at it I would hazard to guess some type of Acorpora Tortuosa perhaps. Honestly that is just a guess.

Could be WWC Yellow Tip, the tips should not fall off.
Here's a pic of mine, in the background.
