SPS ID and question

What is it? Also, it is turning white at the tips and a bit on the side. Is this a sign of growth or is it bleaching? I have it pretty high up in my tank.

Thanks for the help as usual!

 

Beautiful looking Acropora. White tips are normally a sign of growth. I would keep close track of the areas turning white on the side since they are closest to the lights. Definitely could be bleaching.

Did you you acclimate the coral to your lights?

 

Looks like a staghorn, but +1 to 2in10

 

Yes, I moved it up over 2 weeks. Maybe should have gone longer?

It is about 8" below my LEDs.

I will make sure it isn't spreading, will those area's come back if I move it down?

 

I would move it down.... The green acropora are "generally" able to thrive in lower light than some other colored acros (blue for instance requiring tons of light). I would say that your coral is right in the spotlight of a LED.

I am not sure I agree on the staghorn. Needs a little more growth to be for sure though. It is hard to tell, you have 2 different growth patterns there.

 

based on the growth you have sop far i would say Acropora abrotanoides.
