Looks like one to me!

can the top one not be a a. tortusa as well?

Here's a couple links that fijiblue sent to me:

gomezi

austera
http://www2.aims.gov.au/coralsearch/html/001-100/Species pages/10.htm

thanks for the link, but that makes it even tougher, they both are hard to distinguish

number 2 maybe a baby aculeus,but still to small to tell

 

[hansnfrans]

judging by the fact that the radial corallites are pretty uniform in size, I'd rule out the A. austera. I think yours may be an A. gomezi.

Never heard of an aculeus.
1 and 3 are different corals, are they both gomezi?
1 is getting the blue tort colors, solid purplish blue with a green hue and green polyps
