Whatya guys think?

[Justin74]

What does this look like to you?

Aquired it as a 1/2" nub from a wild colony that was passed down as a"green acro" in a club raffle a year or so ago. Clearly it is much more! So tell me watcha think?

Justin, If its a guess you want, then you are in the wrong section

Can you trace its lineage back to "green acro"? Without the proper documentation, it looks like just a plain 'ol "blue acro" to me.

Looks good Justin!!

Almost looks like "lime in the sky".

 

[vvolfe1]

lime in the sky?

 

[chipcount]

without the limes...."blueberries in the sky" lol

 

[tfp]

looks kinda like that reefermadness limeaid nasuta. either way, good job on growing it out from a tiny frag .

 

[slojmn]

I'm with Tim, looks to possibly be some sort of A. nasuta. Very blue picture, can you get a shot of the coral in more true colors??

Very nice no matter what it is .

 

[twon8]

looks somewhat like the ora german green with blue polyps in growth from, but as said above that's kind of hard to tell with the overly blue pic.

if you grew that from a 1/2" frag in a year it's one heck of a fast grower.

Would you get this much educated guesses in that forum?

Thanks guys, pretty much share the same sentiments each week I change my thoughts froms some kind of nasuta, to the ora german blue polyp. Came from John at yourreef, and wouldnt put it past him to slip a sweet coral in the raffle as a no namer..

Sorry for the over all blue cast the true color isnt much different, It was a top down shot and the bulb closests was an actinic so it hard to fight off.

Thanks again for the response!

Well if hes saying its green then it might look like this:

I was really hoping it was like the lime in the sky at first, but noticed it never developed that bright green, but rather the radial coralites are more of an olivey green, and the axial tips look like a hit of purple is trying to come through but are olivey green also.
