Help me find an SPS that matches this one Please

[revaltion131]

I had this awesome, extremely slow-growing little acro (I think) of some variety for roughly 8 months before I went wrong with the Zeovit system (no skimmer) and killed my SPS almost entirely. Having 40ppm of nitrates is baaaad, folks. Well, three years later, three years of scouring, and I have yet to find anything even close. It's time to get serious! I found it as a $5 frag, totally brown, at an LFS and turned it into this really cool, dark-teal frag in the picture below. This at just about 8 months in, and the coral isn't even an inch tall. The thing that really gets me is the brown polyps. The discussion forums are not for wanting to buy.

Thanks so much!

possibly a undata even though it has branches,

Not an undata although they dont branch, but do grow up you can tell because of the polyp coloration could be a granulosa had a similar color type one in mt tank got rid of it though...

I'm sorry, I completely missed the thread about the ID forum. And I'll clarify, I wasn't meaning this as a WTB thread, sorry if it came across that way!

No problems, thanks

A Montipora, undata might be too early to call tho. http://sdmas.com/corals/278.php

As far as the growth goes i will lean toward spongodes

Looks to be some sort of acro but it's soooo small and to soon to tell. Either way, you scored!

Thanks for the ideas. I'll have to start browsing these species and see if I can find any similar colors.

I definitely loved this little frag, but I lost it a couple of years ago. I'm more interested in trying to track down something with an even similar color to it. IMO, it's too small to tell what the species is. The growth pattern had me leaning towards an acropora of some variety but the polyps look more like montiporas I've had. I'm also no SPS ID expert so take that for what it's worth.
