    I'm selling off my corals to help make ends meet after my husband's third back surgery.:cry: Can you please tell me what this is? Some sort of acro? I got it at the LFS a long time ago as a teeny tiny frag. I have someone interested in it, and I've just been listing it as an unknown green sps. I need to get a little more specific. Thanks!!

    Either caroliniana or ORA Phil's Granulosa.

    Thank you. Just went through my photobucket. These are the best I've got right now. I will get some better ones tonight with my underwater camera.

    A. granulosa was my other thought, but the corallites don't look quite right to me, and the growth pattern seems a little off.

    Agreed not just right for a caroliniana

    :speechles

    A. = Acropora = acro

    We thought you were looking for the specific species...
