Okay so I’ve had this guy for a couple of years now and I still haven’t been able to completely figure out what kind of Opuntia it is.  
This is how it has been growing in full sun, so it’s not etiolating.

I’d appreciate any ideas!

Literally seconds after I posted this I found Opuntia Canterae Elat’s, which I’m now almost certain that is what this guy is.
