Hey everyone,
I have an acro in my aquarium that I'm curious about. My LFS just called it a "green fuzzy acro" and gave me a pretty good deal, in terms of SPS coral, for it since it had broken off a colony.
Here is a picture of it:
The reason I'm curious about it is because the coralites are very small, almost flush with skeleton. I haven't seen any other Acros that have had this structure. It has bright green polyps with a dark purplish base color. It really stands out compared to my bright green colony in the background. It also loves to eat some reef roids and marine snow, sometimes having enough polyp extension to put some of my Nehpthea frags to shame haha
If you know the name or species of this Acro, let me know! My Marine Biology majoring girlfriend will also be very happy since she keeps bugging me about finding more information on it!
