Hey everyone I got this beautiful little baby from the fish store locally. When I first got it it was brown and I just started keeping Acropora. I didn't want to spend a lot of money on a really nice one just to have it run on me. Well over the course of about 8 months this thing has been through hell and back as I've switched fish tanks twice and moved once its fallen into a torch coral. But none the less it is survived and I went from a brownish with light green on the base and green polyps to a pretty dark blue on the bottom light blue tips and green polyps. I was hoping somebody could tell me what this is.

Possibly Acropora valida. It still has some coming along to do before it can be clearly identified.
