The only Ice Fire I heard of is an Acropora echinata species. And that is not echinata.

The frag is too small to ID. The only thing to go by is that it can grow long axial corallites and has pocket shaped radial corallites. It could probably be A. cerealis at this point no telling.

Oh well yeah it has the same color as Ice Fire. Potentially every species of Acropora can have a color variant like that. You can easily misidentify it by judging the color. Are you looking for a species name or a show name? It's too small to guess the species, and a show name holds no value if it does not have lineage with it.
Acropora tenius would have more radial corallites arranged in a rosette pattern. And Joe the Coral comes from ORA so if there is no lineage with it then you can be certain if it's that.
Definitely not. Nice coral though.
