2 acro Id's needed please.

Hey guys, wondering if you could help us out with these 2 acros...

the lights in our tank are really blue which throw the pics off a bit, but this one is a white/pink (kind of flesh colour) with bright neon green tips and polyps.

This one we bought as a mille but pretty sure its not, the brown polyps pretty much cover the green base when fully extended.

Thanks for your help!

your first coral is most likely A. secale, while the second is too small to call, other than it is related to the millis.

thanks!

The A. secales we've seen are purple with green tips, should ours be the color?

Most Acroporas have a variety of colours typical for the species. Often they are regional variations. I think yours is still colouring up. Cream-green morphs are known, plus the more typical violet-purple. For IDing, colour is generally a poor criteria due to the possible variation. Being able to examine the skeleton is really the only way to be sure. Otherwise it is educated guessing.
