A coral's environment can dictate it's morphology, which makes identification even more challenging.

yes my mantra is "this won't last forever" but the 3 hours of sleep a night I get is taking its toll, and frankly it feels like forever

I totally agree, all I know about A. valida and A. nana is that it always seems to keep this same coloration. Really its just a WAG and I love that corals can be so different in different conditions. I really enjoy giving others frags and seeing what they do in their tanks, which is often something quite different from what they do in mine

I have to say Christy's photo skills are a bit lacking. This tank looks even better in person, I could have stared at it for hours. Actually, I did

Absolutely stunning colors in this tank!!
