What do you see that makes you think it is a slimer over a tort? In this months TOTM the owner has yellow tort. To me it looks the same.

It really doesn't slime. I frag it every two weeks and it never slimes. I guess they all slime different amounts. Some more than others.

The corallites look very much like slimer. Here's my slimer:
My yellow "tort" looks different (and early pic, colony is much bigger now): The corallites are much thicker and stubbier than on slimer...

Not A.tortousa(tort) IMHO likely A.microphthalma or something similar. Much more of a stag type growth than that a tort.

Well, as far as I know yellow "tort" isn't a. tort anyway, it's actually austera. And also as far as I can tell from the pic, it doesn't look like the species known as the "yellow tort"l the corallites are sharper than on the yellow tort. Micropthalma is an interesting guess, but it really looks like slimer, to me at least.
