What kinds and species of acropora are the easiest hardiest Green Slimer, Red Planet, most valida and milli species have been easiest for me The ORA varieties are a good bet, as is anything from a local reefer that has a history of captive growth and hardiness Smooth skins deep water are usually a bit more challenging to acclimate and get established Also remember they don't take coral dips like Revive as well
