The cream one center right is what I believe a multiacuta.

Wow that is cool. I don't have a clue as to what that is. How long have you had it?

I have only seen/had one wild colony and that was back in '96. I haven't seen one since then.
This piece was a very small frag acquired in 2010 (as a turaki) that was originally in my nano tank under a 20K 150w, then under a 20k 250w, to now LED. The color has not changed.

Thanks, I've had it about a year. Here's two pictures a couple of weeks after I got it.

This acro isn,t Multiacuta, I think is caroliniana.
This is my A. multiacuta (I think):

That's what I tought about a year ago. But I don't think it looks like it now. I have A. Caroliniana and that is way thinner and don't grow that random.
Here's Verons picture of A. Caroliniana.
And A. Multiacuta.

This looks to me like loripes that is semi tabling. It's very unique whatever you've got. How long have you had it? Has the color changed at all?

No, is similar to granulosa but is other coral...I think that is multiacuta but not 100% sure.
I´ve one year or more with me, it come more brown/pink...see the evolution:

Sorry, I duplicate the post!
Sorry, but I am sure that this is not a multiacuta acropora.
This species is one of my favorite acroporas, and is easy to distinguish it from other similar in form because anyother hasn,t that green / neon color tips characteristic of this species. It usually appears under the name of acropora caroliniana, but sometimes classified as Turaki ... I think it's caroliniana.
