I picked this one up from Tim, not much info on it. CITR Granulosa, so far it looks to have potential :)
@therman looked for a colony pic on your thread, couldn't find one. Do you happen to have a colony photo?
Thank you,

Would you guys say that the smooth skins / deepwater acros are the best looking acros under white light / daylight?
Let's say without any orange filter etc.

Apparently I screwed up the name. I got it from two sources, and I think this one was called the FHC Sour Granny.

Unfortunately I don't have a good mother colony photo . It is a very long branched granulosa type. My biggest colony is in the main system and growing great but the colors are a bit washed out, which is why I haven't shot it yet. It has pale lime green base color with kind of orangish brown corallites and blue growth tips. Color is way better on this one in my backup system with nitrate dosing but only have an encrusted frag in there.

@CoralFragZ has a better photo though, maybe he will share it?

I only have 2 Smooth Skinned Acropora (I prefer bottle brush growth and don’t really care about the smoothness of the acro). I dont know their names as i more look into the scientific names over Hobby names :)

This guy isn’t really smooth skinned like the turaki but he does show smoother skinned compared to my other acros.
