Acropora Efflorescens?

[selje]

Need help with this one. This was imported as a Acropora Efflorescens. But is it? Sorry for bad pic. Not easy to take a photo in the QT.

Maybe a A Anothocercis?

I would say efflo but I'm not sure on this one until you get to see the new growth structure.

Which one does the coralite shape, arrangement, and density most match? Here are the two side by side for you to compare.(from the sdmas site.)first anthocercis.

And now a closeup of the coralites

And now efflorescens

And seeing as though that pic doesn't really show off the coralites here another pic showing the coralites

Hope this helps.

can't tell without seeing the coralites (not the growth structure) all though I'm guessing it's on a plug and it appears to be a maricutlured efflo/soli they've been pretty common as of late.

+1. is there any way you can take a picture that shows the coralites more clearly? This would help us greatly.

Sorry for the bad pic. It's in my QT tank. I will try to take a better picture today. Thanks for the help so far:bounce2:
