Branching Acropora or Bird's Nest Coral ?

[Kbreef]

Hi RC members, looking to get an ID on this SPS coral it is bright yellow when the main lights are on....this shot was with just the actinics.

Looking for tips on care and feeding as well.

Thanks in advance

That is definitely acropora. It has a very interesting looking structure, nice find!

Care for the coral is similar to most other sps. Keep it in high light, after proper acclimation. Keep the flow random such that the polyps dance around lightly.

Food is delivered via fish poop (feeding your fish like normal is usually enough).

Good luck!

Sorry to burst your bubble, but it isn't an A. Echinata.
I've seen that on DD but cannot remember the species name. Sorry.
