ORA yellow fuzzy acro

[doonan75]

Could somebody please tell me the actual name for the yellow fuzzy and tell me the proper placement? I just bought one yesterday and put it mid level(same level as a supposedly blue tort that is mostly purple and green and is doing well). It had really good PE yesterday and this morning(I'm at work so have no idea what it looks like now and can't post photos) so I'm thinking that it's OK for now. It's under leds and was under t5's at the store. My nitrates are steady at 0 for the last few months if anyone aks.

I read that it a chesterfieldensis(SP) is that right anybody?

Ok so nobody chimed in so I will up date. Moved it up to the top and in pretty strong flow polyp extension is amazing and it is almost fully encrusted on it's plug with what looks like new growth on a few of the tips. Went from canary yellow to canary yellow with bright green tips.

Not sure. ORAs site is down again. Here is a chester http://sdmas.com/corals/17.php

It looks very similar to that but the growth tips are a bright neon/metalic green and the polyp extension on mine is really hairy.

Thanks

That is a pic of a wild colony, so the color in your reef tanks can become more dramatic and the polyp extension could look different because of your simulated flow. The best was to compare them is by the skeleton itself.
