I was joking! Of course you already knew it was an acropora. I would vote that its a Tri-Color Acropora Echinata.

It looks an awful lot like my ora joe the coral. I don't know the exact species but here is an older picture of mine. It has been said that it loses it's green color after a while which mine has lost a little now.

Yes they are very similar, Joe the Coral is a Tenuis and more fuzzy than an Echinata.

Mine has nice extension, but I dont its quite as bushy as the joes. It also has an almost iridescent appearance. I think echinata might be it but Im not positive.

Shouldve just left it at acro :D
