    That's true. I was only thinking desalwii thanks to photos on DD. You'll have to enlarge the image then compare the two.

    Identifying the genus is easy, the species is another story. I think Seano is on the right track.

    I'm going to say Acropora Tenuis. This is based on the flat coralite tops
