Any “Elkhorn” Coral. Acropora Palmata experts? I.D. help needed.

Here is a pic of my green monti digitata

This is my green elkhorn

Mine looks like a mix between the two. I have 2 green m. Digis and they don’t look like my coral in question. Also checked out your “Tank Thread” very nice. Congrats!

now that you mentioned it I have a peach digitata ( or whatever it is) that grows almost just like that

Peach Digi? Do you have a photo?

No, taking one now….
disclaimer I think its one of these to but I’ll be honest, I almost never remember what’s what once glued …
I’m pretty sure it was from ORA as all the “other vendors” corals don’t last long
…I’m no photographer

Very cool, thanks. Definitely a strange shape.

This is actual A. palmata in an aquarium. It looks nothing like the branching Montipora pictured.

Acropora palmata is such a great coral to see when holding on strong as a big colony in the wild. Thanks for sharing one that’s doing well in an aquarium. Cool to see.

Very impressive coral. Thanks for finding that.
