Yellow acropora identification

[Miami Reef]

This acro was popping yellow in the LFS. It’s a wild marticulture piece.

Does anyone have an ID on this guy? Photos do not do it justice, and it honestly looked MUCH better at the LFS. ;)

It’s definitely yellow. No doubt.

Maricultured corals don't come with names, typically. They are literally farmed wild corals from the Indo-Pacific. Aquacultured corals do come with names and are typically grown inland.

Kind of looks like Acropora aculeus to me. A. aculeus can be bright yellow-green at times.

Agreed, Indo cultured microclados typically look a lot different than the Aussie shortcake microclados that the hobby has grown accustomed to.
