I know, I know...I hate these kind of threads as much as you.
However...I picked up this frag at my LFS store for $5. They had no clue what it was, called it a "trade in is some kind". I thought it might be a Shortcake at 1st glance but now that I can get a closer look, I dont think so. My question is think its more of a stag, tableing or bushy type of acro? Don't care much for fancy names. Just trying to figure out placement and spacing among my other corals.

Thanks reefers,
Mark

As for type of structure growth it will have is as about as easy as determining what kind of car this is in the picture below. You can't really know until it grow out into that structure.

With that said I can give you a guess as to the species from what I see there, but it will be impossible to say how it will grow just by the picture. It looks like it might be A. macrostoma.

Could be A Microclados the species which a interesting colour morph is called strawberry shortcake mine is a tabling growth form that frag is likely of the common solid pink morph
