Strawberry Shortcake Acro ID Please

A.Nasuta or A.Microlados ?

I'm not the best at species identification, but most strawberry shortcakes are a. Microlados

It looks like it could be A. microclados. If it was known to have SSC lineage from a trustworthy source then I would say it's SSC. Otherwise I would just call it Acropora cf. microclados for now.

That looks a lot like what was sold to me as Red Planet acro.

The coral pictured does not appear to be a. nasuta.
