Found this guy on a piece of liverock at the local store. Looks like it was a colony at one point. They weren’t sure what kind it was. This isn’t all of it, I’ll try to get some better pictures tommarrow. Hopefully I have enough light for it. Currently running 10 3w 440-450 leds, and 20 3w 10000-15000 leds. And a full spectrum t5 in the back. I just ordered more leds.

Looks more like a branching montipora to me...
 
I would say it is an Acropora, unsure on species though
 
I was thinking it’s possibly an acropora sarmentosa.
 
with rounded tips like that it could be acropora nana, but acropora species for sure
 
double post
 
Here’s some better pics. It’s adjusted and looking happy.
