Help me identify these corals/anemone

[erik7281]

Hello everyone,

I need some help identifying my corals and anemone. I have an idea of what they may be, but please feel free to correct me. I think one of them is a frogspawn, the other may be an elephants ear, candycane coral. I do not know what time of anemone that is nor do I know what the little green sticks on my live rock are. Can some one please confirm what I have.

Thanks!!

the second picture is a coral called green trumpet coral and the third one appears to be either frogspawn or hammer coral or possibly an anemone i have never seen. not sure about the others.

Actually the fourth one looks like some sort of mushroom.

Green trumpet coral is also known as candycane. The green looking things may be some form of macroalgae.

The first was some kind of calcerous grren algae. Second was a Candycane..
One of the others ( the fourth?) was a Mushroom, maybe a baby Rhodactis. Last was an anemone. Not sure of species though.

The fourth one should be an anemone...my two clown fish host in it. I would like to find out what it is co I can better care for it

1. Nemoseris sp., a macroalgae.
2. Caulastrea furcata, common names include Candy Cane, Cat's Eye or Trumpet coral I think...
3. Euphyllia paradivisa, Frogspawn Coral
4. Rhodactis rhodostoma, furry Mushrooms
5. Entacmea quadricolor, the Bubble Tip Anemone

Just because your clowns host in it does not make it an anemone. Clowns will host in lots of different corals

clowns will also host regular objects such as pots, power Heads, the list goes on.... and on

Yes my clowns host front right corner of my tank. Agree with pp on candy cane and frogspawn identifications.
