Anyone?

Acro, good lighting and good flow!

Purple tort of some sort.

Medium light.. good flow... easy grower in my experience. I have one the size of a large infant

Agree. Tort immediately came to mind when I saw the pic.

 

[frantz]

For clarification (my own included) tort is a type of Acropora isn't it?

 

[cbj25]

^^^ yes acropora tortuosa

 

[jayu]

I too believe its a tort. However, I'm curious as to which kind. Cali , Oregon, etc. Also, there seems to be a difference in opinion in lighting needs. I have it located where lighting seems to be the most intense. No bleaching as of now but the frag has a reddish-brown tint. It was that way when I got it. Wondering if thats anything to worry about.

My vote is Oregon

That green color will go away with stronger lighting

Mine is that color at the base and around the growth ring

Looks like Bennett/Cali Tort to me.
