I.D. this frag, please

[Fishie Nut]

It's really nice. Got it for a song. I'd like to know what it is. I'm not the best photographer, but I'm learning...

Thanks for the help.

acropora flourogreenicus

 

[Fishie Nut]

Thanks, Kip. Never heard of that one.

I've got it in HIGH light, HIGH flow -- is this okay?

 

[Kip]

... i made that name up based on what it looked like... sorry.. i was just fooling around

any acro in high light, high flow should be ok as long as it is acclimated to those conditions.

Dang that thing is sweet lookin'. Sorry I can't help you ID it though. Nice find....

“I'm not the best photographer, but I'm learning...”

Hell you not the worst either!! Great pic, awesome coral.

 

[Fishie Nut]

I'm glad it's almost the weekend. Mr. Gullible is going to try to ID this coral. LOL

 

[menard]

I have one similar to that flo. green Acro. Chesterfiedensis

 

[Fishie Nut]

Sounds good. It is fluroescent green polyps, esp under actinics.

Thanks, menard.

 

[spankey]

Is that photo taken with the actinics on? If so, what does it look like with them off?

Spank.

 

[Fishie Nut]

I'll see if I can get a pic later on this afternoon when I'm home.

branches look a little thin to be chester i think.. usually chesterfiedensis is thicker .

Could be though,, lower flow could make it thiner

Here's a pic under the HQI:

[NuclearReefs]

i dont see any PE.. you have that high up in the tank?
I see some brown on the tips too.. Id think about lowering that if you have it high in the tank...

coralites do look a little like chester in that pic though

 

[Fishie Nut]

I have it very high. The brown was on it when I got it. It was under high halides. Those spots were already there. I'll watch it. If I have to lower it, I'll do it this weekend

 

[imtopora]

I think its a tenuis. Nice color

 

[Fishie Nut]

So far two for chester; one for tenuis.

Anyone? Anyone? Anyone? (my old Ferris Bueler days)

 

[NuclearReefs]

coralites arent long enough for tenius...
