Brown acro with pink tip

[DragonGoby]

Hi,

Any idea what species of Acro this is? It's brown with slightly pink tips, and under actinics the polyps near the top glow green.

Also, after I converted to the Sakis, this piece started becoming "shaggier", i.e. more polyp extension. Should there be any cause of concern?

Thanks!

Saw a few of that acros and poci at T95 today. Very nice colony.

Too bad, I have lost interest in SPS...

Looks like cerealis or valida to me..

Pardon me for my ignorance, but where's (or what's ) T95?

Yazid, lost interest in SPS? Why?

If you can get a clear picture with the polyps out of the way so that the corallites are visible I can probably identify it down to a few species for you.

Ah, I know! I'll snip off a branch, dry it and see the skeletal structure. OK, ok, I'm just joking - I've got to be MAD to do that.

Thanks so much, Tanzy - I'll try to get a pic of them, but even at night 3-4 hrs after lights-out some polyps will still be visible.

TanGo, how do I get there by car?

Do you know where Jalan Kayu is?

OH. It all comes back to me. =) Back in the army days when I had no car a group of friends and I went there on foot. GOSH.

But it's so hard to navigate there - that place is stuffed full of LH farms, alas. I'll go and try it out one day!
