Carduus http://sdmas.com/corals/14.php

To me, the first looks much closer to A. caroliniana.

The corallites would be longer and generally angled upward with A. suharsonoi.

I was thinking coroliniana also, but the tips were kind of suharsonish to me. If it is wild then it would probably be a typical spiky bush if it were suharsoni.

Yeah I know what you mean. It does look more 'delicate' than the typical A. caroliniana. I was thinking that it could just be the morphology of the piece. Or maybe we've overlooked one of the other species..

It looks wild or at least maricultured to me.

The second one is a close A. elegans to me. the right branches are showing flattened sides.
Yeah, Happy coral has a nice colonies of deep water acros a few days ago. I managed to grab one with blue tips but I held the shipping till Christian get my Hoeksemai and Abrotanoides. I also talked him into giving Free Shipping on orders over $200, which I saw in his website just today!!! I hope he gives me free shipping, I placed order last week but he hasn't ship yet.
Hey, Rogerwilco, that avatar looks like the coral I ordered!!!

I say Christian's elegans, i kinda thought that was flatter than this. Elegans will be flat all around too. http://sdmas.com/corals/470.php
