Name my coral

[clancaster23]

Picked up several frags today because I wanted more of a variety of stuff other than zoas, mushrooms and frogspawns. Got eight of them and I got names for a couple but want to get some definite ID's on all of them and any kind of special placement flow/lighting that they need.

1 -

2 -

I believe these are the same but this one, although bigger, looks a little rough.

3 -

Got this cause it is green and looks like a Christmas tree. Acropora?

4 -

Type of brain? Acan?

5 -

6 -

7 -

8 -

The tank they are in doens't have the best light so if there is one that needs better, I can put it in my other tank that has better lighting.

1+2 possibly trumpets or candy canes?
5 maybe a war coral or favite?

 

[clancaster23]

I do remember him calling one a favia coral. Gotta be #5. Still not sure about 1-2. Guess I'll have to wait til they open up, hopefully today, to see what they look like. Trumpet is a good possibility though, thanks.

 

[NanoReefer]

yeah5 is a favia

1&2 look to be Blastos.

 

[clancaster23]

Now that you say tha name, I think you got it. I think I remember him saying I got one, then when I picked another one, he said another Blastomussa. Now for that number 8.....

 

[fastrd400]

Get some better pics after they open up. 8 looks like it could be a couple different things to me.

 

[clancaster23]

Yeah, I plan on taking some here soon. I spread them out along the tank to where I think they should go and they look better already. I'll be putting them up a bit later.

 

[clancaster23]

Better pics:

This is of what I believe is the Blasto. I have two of them, this being the bigger one.

And the unknown one. It has little heads or something all over it that open up.

 

[ErinCahir]

First one is definitely a blasto... I've got nothing on the second one, though.

 

[clancaster23]

One a little better may help...
