I know the green polyp one is a validia, the one next to it lost its green tint. And the last one looks like highlighter fluid, sry if the pics are washed out, thanks.

1st pic looks like Appleberry Palawanensi

2nd pic to the right looks like purple bonsai

3rd pic hard to tell, maybe Acropo Vermiculata??? Not sure...

Thanks! Smh at lfs they told me it was a validia and i swore it was a garf but he said that was people trying to rename everything. And he claimed the monti was an acro. Btw is the appleberry rare? I thought it was so cool i had to buy it.

Appleberry is not readily available, I rarely see it at local shops. I would say a great pick up

I agree it looks like a bonsai, but i also had a valida that started that color as well, after it acclimated is when it started getting the orange base with purple tips, so if it changes colors within a month or two you'll know which one you have.

also, mine was a tri color valida for the record, the normal ones i'm not sure what they color up to, do a search online and you should be able to see a difference between the two.

#2 looks like a tricolor A. valida to me as well...

#3 is most likely Acropora aculeus

I personally think the monti looks like m.capitata - you'll see what I mean once it starts growing into columns. I have what appears to be the same & it's a fairly large colony now.
