This is an unidentified species of acropora which is expected to grow in a table shape.

This was provided to me as a free coral in replacement for a previous order issue with an on-line vendor.

I'm not even sure what color it will be.

This coral has more than tripled in size over the past 5 months. It is approximately 4 inches tall and 2 inches wide. Nothing significant with its colors but it is very healthy looking.

TThe table growth morph is taking shape, sort of. It has grown half a table so far. Very healthy looking but not the most colorful coral when viewed from the front. However, it looks nice when viewed from above (see next picture).

Viewed from above this coral shows some nice colors including blue growth tips.
