That looks awsome!

Im not sure on the collector name though.

I don't think it is a miyagi. Miyagi isnt so bright blue and it usually has yellowish green tips. That may be a Cali tort. Its still a bit small to say for sure. Repost in the id thread in a few more months.

For sure not the Cali, I have a large colony of that and they are different.

There are a few torts out there that seem to not have a name. I have one that was supposesed to be a Greg Hillers blueberry frag, but it has turned into a tort. It looks a lot like the one you're trying to id.
I have the shawn bennett, miyagi, Cali, Oregon, and yellow tort. I have two or three others that don't have an id. Yours probably falls into that area.

That's the coveted Mother of Pearl

Lol! It's the Miyagi it's got the right color and it's the right species. The MOP has a lighter green in it and looks a little different as a grown out colony. At least that's what I got from the MOP thread last week. The problem is that this is an older named sps and now everything's named so your bound to have similar color and SAME species.

It's a "miyagi" unless you can trace who it came from and where they got it etc.
