It's LPs I can grow it at a par of 75 I can't do that with sps

Its an SPS. Cant really understand why it would be pointed as lps. And one cant judge coral by par value. I keep my mr. Packman at the same lighting level as acans but that doesnt make it an lps.

I'm thinking that since the polyps are small, kind of the criteria for SPS, I'm going with SPS.

That's just what I thought there's all the cryterya for lps

i have always considered it an LPS. very hardy, don't need or like much light, I have have never had one RTN. Not sure what the book says on it.

LPS for sure.

The polyps are quite large compared to SPS.

but I'd say quite small compared to a typical LPS.

We need to sort this out. I have one in my SPS tank, now I'm not sure it can stay!! :)

I always thought it was an sps! Because of the smaller polyps.
