    Congratulations, Gabby. It's great to see it all worked out.

    What is the name of that tabling acro? I love the color.

    Mystery acro? Lol I don't know, but I call it "red bug acro" because it was the biggest success. I bought it from someone who also didn't know what it was, and was selling it for cheap because it was doing bad in their tank. Shortly after I bought it, I realized I had a major case of red bugs. My best guess is some type of tri-color valida.

    Your acropora looks very much like a Valida.

    Member Dingo did a coral of the month write up on them, you can search for it.
