Anyone know what Acropora this is?

[i cant think]

Blue slimer looks exactly like it, except it's more blue like an oregon tort.

I wonder if I just let it grow out and get a photo at the end of the month then to see if we can ID it properly?
Will have *hopefully* weekly updates on the growth in my build thread.

I'm kinda leaning towards valida.

I’ve just realised how blues out the photo is, I’ll try get a better photo of it from top down.

Orange filter, or if using a samsung phone for pics, pro mode where you can adjust the white balance.

Amber/brown sunglasses work well too.

This is slightly more accurate, the green is just a bit brighter though, not as dull as it appears on the photo of that purple/blue slimer.

Honestly, other then it being an acro, with all the crazy names being thrown around lately, it could be anything.

I've seen the exact same frag(assuming it's a stock photo and not WYSIWYG) called 4 different things from 4 different vendors.

Should I just care for it the same way as I have been doing and see how it grows to get a potential scientific ID then instead of a designer name?

I'd say so. Most of your acros are gonna flourish under higher light and flow. Only a few that seem to like a little less light.

I agree 100%

I do nothing different for my acro's then I do for my LPS, other then place them higher up for more light and flow.
