Thick Stag Type SPS - ID Needed!

[TJ_Burton]

Hello folks,

I was hoping one of the more SPS savvy members could lend me a hand in identifying what type of Acro this might be.

It is about an 1.5" thick at the base, and roughly 0.5" thick at the tips. (it's a pretty thick coral)

The pic was taken a day after being placed in the tank, so it doesn't show much polyp extension (which may make it easy to ID).

Thanks in advance!

That is a beautiful Acropora abrotanoides.

Thanks!

I had my suspicions that it may be A. abrotanoides

I appreciate the ID!
Anyone else care to refute the ID?
