haha. thanx. What is the visible differences between acro and monti digi?

 

[murphreef]

u can just tell by the structure a monti doesnt have any protruding coralite structures and a branching one has smooth branches like that

 

[itz frank]

oooooooh ok. acro has the whole closed/inverted polyp look to it. gotcha. Even still. My first sps.
