    Alec, are you sure the SPS there is an acropora? It kinda looks like a montipora of some variety but I could be wrong. I am just seeing the way it polyps in the photo and although it's growing up in a branch it may not be an acro... Just a thought :) beautiful butterfly fish!! They are so cool to watch! Tank is looking very nice! Keep up the good work!

    I'm actually not sure at all! Lol. That was just a guess really.. I've just never seen a monti with that kind of bubbly branching look to it. So I just assumed acro.. Hopefully an SPS pro will chime in and educate us both haha. Thank you though!

    Here's a few pics of the new little guy. He's only about an inch and a half so he's really small. He looks tiny next to my CB butterfly. I'll get some better pics soon, these were taken with my phone and it blows. Anyways he's light pink with orange/yellow stripes, really red lips, blue and yellow on his fins and belly, the has a green tail and bigg orange eyes.. First pic is him sleeping anddd the second is him swimming around.
