SPS ID help please

[returnofsid]

Hi all,
I posted these awhile back, without much luck. I've let them grow out a lil' hoping for better luck. Any ideas??

 

[Frankenpora]

Acropora Tortusa IMO

Well, I've got this ID posted on 3 forums that I respect. So far, I've had people think it's some type of Tort, a person thinks it's Tenuis, someone else thinks it's A. turaki, and finally, someone else says Acropora jacquelineae. Any more thoughts?

Looks like a turaki to me

it's not A. jacquelineae, wrong structure. also not tenuis. looks to me like what i think to be A. turaki, only as far as i know i haven't had turaki yet so i'm not entirely ruling out a tort. i'll have to look at my ora blue tort tomorrow but leaning toward turaki.

btw brett, the ora marshall Island blue bottlebrush that i recently picked up from you is doing and looking good with the correct polyp extension & color. thanks again for meeting me half way for a $15 frag :^)

Thanks all, I'm leaning towards some type of Tort. myself. Guess I'll have to let it grow more...lol. It sure is a unique mini colony. I love the dark blue/purple and white polyps.
