maybe i'll take a top down shot for you if ure still not comvinced. growth formatios vary greatly depending on environment and the shape of the fragment can also have an effect on the growth of incipient corallites. An example is when I frag my cali tort, it will sprout 10 or more lil branches from one branch and the shape of those tips doesnt resemble the axial tip that was cut.

looks like a nasuta to me,the last pic you posted is a good pic of the coralites.the top right branch tip has the classic cupped coralites of a nasuta.

The two acros have some things in common, but being Acropora nasuta is not one of them IMO. Agree to disagree.
