according to ora they are birdsnest ( scientific name slips my mind right now)

but they do look like stylophora
altho ora also sells stylophora but it is not as thin branched

ORA has two similar polyp looking corals, the one in the picture is a birdsnest and the name is Seriatopora guttatus.

The one you reefering too is also sold by ORA but it has a wider rounded branch and the name is Stylophora pistillata

Rogger is correct.

glad to see your blasto's opened up nicely as well

 

[jessp]

i always worry about blastos, they seem to do great in my tank and the frags all did very well. however some people don't have luck and i'm glad to see yours so fluffy and green. the half polyp on the end will probably end up healing and making a whole polyp over time.(a long time)

cool thanks for the blasto again. i have had really good luck with blastos. i have a red one that extends out and looks kinda like a mushroom on a rock. it is very happy and the green one i got from you is doing awesome too.
