Acro id's, please

[nebraskareef]

Hello all,

I've been amassing quite a few frags. I've got some already Identified ORA and some other easy to id pieces (pocis, Efflo, setosa's) but some I really have no idea.

I appreciate any advice.

1)
Piece on the left I believe is a Hawkins. I have a larger colony and they look similar. Something happened to this guy in transit. Piece on the right is what I'm really looking to ID. One of my favorites by far.

2) I was sold the coral on the left as a green tort. The coral on the right I believe to be sunset. Is this correct?

3) This is green base and white polyps. I was told it's a fast grower.

4) Was sold to me as ORA Hawkins

5) Piece on the right, it was really hairy in the store. I know the picture wasn't great. has blue tips and a brown base at the moment.

6) This came in recently, has a pink sheen but overall was very, very light in color when I got it. Very awesome looking and hope to get it color up. Really hoping for an ID on this piece so I can figure care.

7)

Thank you all Very much!

Daniel

They are all very small to ID.

To guess;
1. Subulata http://coral.aims.gov.au/speciesPages/species_metadata/0073/view#
2. Encrusting Monti
3. Acropora
4. Turaki http://coral.aims.gov.au/speciesPages/species_metadata/0714/view#
5. Acropora
6. A. millepora/ prostrata
7. Same as 5?
8. Granulosa/ loripes

My opinion slightly differs:
1- A.tenuis
2- montipora but pic too blue to tell what species
3- Yes acro but pic too blue to tell what species
4- I agree with Turaki
5 - A.plana or maybe even A.desalwii (both look pretty similar as frags but I'm leaning towards plana) The two pix are the same piece right?
6 - likely A.Loripes or granulosa?
7 - Likely A. hyacinthus (often confused with millepora or prostrata because the corallites & polyp structures are very similar however hyacinthus is much more common but generally misidentified as mille when sold in smaller colonies or frags) As it matures you can tell because it will start to table.
