new unknown acro out of the interceptor treatment

ok these next pics aren't perfect color but close. the pics are a little too electric blue. i'm sure it will color up insain once it settles in...but it isn't that way now...only time will tell

like my male clown yawning in the pic :lol:

any id??

can't wait for it to color up. it was sitting at my buddies who has a "store" in his garage. been there for 2wks or so and it caught my eye ASAP. took the wife there the next day (sunday) and she loved it too.

maybe a loripes??

thanks

A loripes

Bucket,

I just recieved a colony that looks verrrrry similar and it is a loripes. I suck also at ID'ing. If they say it is a Acro it is a acro? Sometimes we depend to much on what we are told.

 

[Lunchbucket]

dustin - yeah i'm not huge on ID'ing but if it is an easy one and i can get a name for it i'm game. if not no biggie. ID'ing is so hard we prolly have a lot of the wrong anyhwo

Always gotta be a pessimist JK!!

 

[SPStoner]

I'm going to go along with jesus and say Rosaria.

Either way, it is sweet!

Nice score

Rosaria's coralites are different although the two are very similar. I am also leaning towards Loripes. The coralites are more tubular.

 

[Lunchbucket]

Jesus and SPStoner- i'd agree now that is the A. Rosaria pics on coralsearch

daddy - hmmm...i'll have to look closer

[Lunchbucket]

guess it might tank a while for the tips to grow out and see if they are more tubular

Definitely A. loripes or rosaria. As you say it's just a waiting game to see which one.

 

[JB NY]

I think A. loripes

 

[sps_addict]

I think loripes. I have a large piece similar to that.

 

[Lunchbucket]

like i said my first guess was loripes but wanted to ask the experts

doesn't matter that much...just kind of nice to maybe had a name to call it instead of "that acro on the right side of the tank above that milli"
