Reef raft “My Sunshine” exists?

[christwendt]

Hello. I purchased an acropora from a respected vendor today at a reef expo. They labeled it reef raft OG my sunshine. Regardless it was pretty and I paid 200$ for it. I then googled it and couldn’t find anything on that name so I went back to the booth and asked. They seemed stumbled I couldn’t find any info on it online. They then said something about it’s because it’s reef raft Canada or something? Then they text messaged me a picture of the mother colony. What do you think ? I will post pics of the Frag I got tomorrow but currently lights are out.

The colony is beautiful. What did your frag look like. The red on that reminds me of pictures of vivid four loko

I’m taking pics of it today. I understand it’s doesn’t look like the picture because it’s highly saturated. I’m mainly trying to figure out what it could possible be if I can’t find anything online. Like I said this vendor I generally trust and even more so the guy who sold me it. He has an amazing acro tank.

No it doesn’t. I’m going to take a pic with only an orange filter today when my lights are on. I know it won’t ever look like the picture because it’s saturated. I’m maknly
Trying to figure out what acro it is since I can’t find anything online under the name they sold it as.

Well its a nice piece. Will be a good one for you to do grow out pics on.

I’m actually kind of shocked that when I took my own pics I can see it’s indeed came from the mother colony pic I previously posted. Here are ones with my normal lighting (white spectrum) and one with deeper blues and an orange filter on camera. No photo shop. I’m really curious on the ID of this acro since nothing online shows reef raft my sunshine.

Pretty close huh? I see the similarities. I did not edit. Deep blues and orange filter. No photo shop.

Lol yea it threw me off. The back portions don’t look Saturated like some. Only the corral does. But from my non photo edits it still looks amazing and similar? I just wish I knew the name.

Looks like a variation of Acropora florida. Nice, if those are the actual colors.
