this was a hitch hiker. the closest thing I can find online is a green tort. my camera washes out colors. it's a lot darker green in person.
 
There are many green acros, coming up with a definitive specie name on a frag is purely a guess. As it grows and forms a shape and colors up more mature, can come up with a better idea.
At this point, I would place it under unknown "Yellow and Green Acropora sp."
 
Hello,
Most likely Acropora yongei. It will produce copious amounts of a clear gel coating when removed from water. Will turn yellow under high light and very thick branches under high flow. Typical growth rates of .75" - 1.25" per month so leave plenty of room around and above it.

Regards,
Kevin
