Acro ID?
Anyone have a guess to what kind of acro this is?
Reefscience has a frag of this on there site right now and has it listed just as an ORA frag. I picked one up a little while ago and just curious to find out its name.
I will have maybe 2 free small frags in a little while if anyone wants em.

No idea on the ID but it sure is good looking. Put me down for a piece when you are ready to frag it..

I'm sure Derek would like a frag of that, if not, I have some space in my tank. I have caught that SPS bug.

I might be interested also. Mike(hink) and I just bought a few corals from Chad at Reefscience also. I also have a unidentified ORA frag. Dont really care about the ID I just thought it was cool so had to have it along with a couple others lol. Heres a pic from reefscience. Will try to get some pics in the tank this weekend.
Btw Deseon nice pic. Now lets see the rest of your goodies. Or do I have to come take pics myself??? I would be more than happy to.

The pic is from the ReefScience site. I'm so last century, with only my film camera.
But I will have the frags for you and RTK.
I have been admiring your recent pics of Tracy and Sheryl's tanks. My tank is nowhere that gorgeous, but have just a few acros the sps people might like. Hopefully they will be ready for the star treatment soon.
Dennis (RTK) - I already saved a frag for Derek. You'll like this acro, it's hardy and grows well. Like with most acros, this one likes a lot of light for the color to come out on the tips and the body to show its cream color.

Schweet! I'm really curious what that'll look like when it grows up.
Casey, I'm fairly certain that's the purple pillow. I have one that looks exactly like it. One of my faves.

Well boys I'll have to disagree I have both the Chips and the Pillow and Deseons piece and this piece look nothing like the others. I agree either a Tricolor or Validida. I will try to get some pics tonight for a side by side. The pillow in my tank is neon greenish with purple tips this new piece is tanish with blue tips and neon green polyps. Actually the closest ORA coral that I think it resemble is the "Austrailian Delicate Staghorn". Was one of the latest releases from ORA.

Thanks Fugucuts, I will wait patiently and hope it grows well so I can then pass on some frags.
