Montiporas look like flat thin plates and acros are branching corals...Between the poccilopora or stylo...poccilopora looks more clumped together so I'm leaning towards the stylo, but not sure.

That's where I am confused montipora and acropora both have branching coral and the other one you spoke of I never heard of ha. I bought this at a lfs and he said it was acro but just doesn't look like it to me

It definitely doesn't look like an acro to me. Try looking at some pictures to figure out how it looks?

It would either be a stylopora or a montipora. Most likely a stylopora, but there are branching montipora...I can use the Marshall island latana as an example. Sometimes with frags, it is hard to tell what it is until it grows out more.
