I waited to long to take the pic and the halides have already turned off. This is going to be our first FnF SPS exclusive, just letting it color up. We are calling this the Twilight Acro but i think its something similar to a Turaki. Just wondered if anyone could take a stab at it. I know its hard under actinics to see but its light blue with neon green polyps. This came in on our last indo transshipment and i've never seen one like it.

Looks kinda like the ORA Australian Delicate IMO...

well, now that you say that i agree with you, although its not as delicate... lol

I'll have to get a shot with the main lights on and post it tomorrow, i guess that wouldn't disappoint me to bad! :D

Fish n' Frags · Nov 8, 2008

actinics are screwing up the pic pretty bad, but its a superman digitata.

You would'nt happen to be fragging that digi eh? :)

I'll take a frag of both!

Fish n' Frags · Nov 8, 2008

LOL, not yet, we are growing out some great stuff so that we can have a nice SPS collection on the website. Icefire, Superman Digi, Lime in the Sky, Shades of Fall, bunches of ORA, it will be nice eventually

I don't think it is a turaki as it looks nothing like mine but that species is highly variable. If you sell me an icefire frag, I'll tell you what I think it is :) JK. My guess would be chesterfieldenesis that came from a low flow area on the reef.

looks very similar to a Acropora Subglabra...do a google image search and see what you think

You may be right Kev, this is exactly what my piece looks like only bigger and the blue is more pronounced. I'm hoping that in a few months the dark will fade and it will just be light blue with neon green polyps. Heres to hoping!!:wink:
