first off, you have a GORGEOUS looking tank from what i see there. secondly, that green acro in the back right, what is that?? almost looked like a green tort/ and thirdly, i may have to agree on tenuis, one of my fav species of acro
 
Yep Tenuis:

Description: Acropora Tenuis is a beautiful, albeit "under-appreciated" Stony. It is evenly branched and grows in a cluster form. The most common color variety's are a yellow, cream, or green base with deep blue or rose tips or just completely green. Colonies are small plates, sometimes perfectly circular, sometimes semicircles projecting from the side of the reef. Branches are small, regular in diameter and regularly spaced. The radial corallites have flaring lower lips which are conspicuous. Branchlets divide, but do not anastomose. This is a small, sometimes inconspicuous coral, but may be common (Sheppard). Colonies are corymbose plates with neat, evenly spaced branches. Radial corallites have wide lower lips giving them a neat rosette-like appearance when viewed from above.
