Coral ID

[lhcorals]

I got this coral a couple months ago. The name that was told to me is a Shark Tooth Acro. I am trying to find out the true name. Here are a few pics. Any help would be great.


The first 2 pics are the same, just tried to zoom in to give a better look.Taken 7/13/09

This was taken when i first got it in Late May.

My best guess would be an a. lokani.

emphasis on the word "guess" :)

Thanks for the input, but not a Lokani.

My shot in the dark is A. Granulosa or A. Loripes...

A. carolina or A surashoni, too close to tell until they table ;)

You are the second to say A Surashoni. The other was off of WAMAS.

Its one of the two. Many times those two species are so close that you can not tell until they get the elongated branches still while tabling. My understanding is the differemce is how far the branches are apart.
