Solutions are easy. The real difficulty lies in discovering the problem.

Would you say this is the same one? Sorry, not the best pic. But when the polyps are not fully out, the tips are all turquoise blue, and deep pink stems.

Looks like a dense growth pattern on a vermiculata to me. This is definitely a shallow water sps where as the Needle in a Haystack is a Deep Water SPS.

I have looked at those on the web, but I don't see the resemblance. It is really not that dense, maybe the pic angle makes it look that way. Some day I will try to take a top down pic.

Anyways, thanks for looking.

The patterns on the skin looks different to me (CC's has dots while your's has lines). Is that possible that same smooth skin acro can have unique patterns (kinda like finger print :P)?

Yes, I noticed that too, but not sure if that is a distinguishing difference or if one coral can have either.
