    I zoomed in as much as I could and came up with a branching acro of some kind.... maybe.

    Really need better pics.

    My thoughts were possibly an Acro.

    Thanks, guys! I think you are right... Acro.

    My first guess is an Acropora as well, but it could just as easily be a Monti, Poci, or Stylo.

    A close up pic with the polyps retracted would help to ID further.
