Neat SPS / FTS. Pink/Blue Digi? Help with ID, please.

[Grandlotus]

Hello,
Just wondering if I could get some help with a few ID's on some coral that I have picked up from the LFS.

Was told this was a pink digi...the polyps are pink and the base/tips of the coral are blue.


I believe this birds nest is a Ponape Bird Nest, but not 100% sure. Also, what about the purple coral? Possible ORA purple stylo?


A better picture of the above purple coral...


This coral seems to be a very slow grower and have had this in my tank for quite a while and it has not grown much at all...when the polyps are out they seem to be green.


Was told this was a birds nest from the LFS...still coloring up but the polys seem to be golden orangish and the base is purple at the tips and more light purple farther down.


Really not a clue what this guy is...stylo? Pictures looks the way it does in real life.


This is more purple than it looks on the polyps and on the tips its almost a white/light yellow.


I think this might be a pearlberry, but confirmation would be awesome.


I know this is an acro and the pictures are horrible, but any guesses?


I know this is a birds nest. has yellow base with light purple tips.

1. I would say it could be Montipora digitata and it is pink. I have seen three different variation of pink in branching Montiporas. I could not really say they were all digitata tho.

2. Both of those are ORA signature names. They would have to be known to come from ORA or the name would just be the species name. So the first one could be the same species as Panape, Seriatopora hystrix , but you can't be sure by looking at it. Same at the purple Stylophora pistillata, looks like it but cant really say it's ORA if you are not sure if it came from there.

3. Too small to even guess. Blue Acropora is as good as a guess for now.
4. & 5. are Montipora digitata as well.
6. This looks more like ORAs Purple Stylo. But no lineage to ORA so I would say it is Stylophora pistillata.

7. Again, if you are not sure if it comes from ORA then you can't reasonably call it ORAs Pearlberry. It does not look like it either. Too small to say what species it is for sure but ORAs Pearlberry is A. desalwii, which doesn't resemble yours.

8. Another Acropora, but too small to guess which species.
9. Looks like another Seriatopora hystrix.

Thank you, sir!
This has helped a lot.

Still wondering what 7. is...

number 7 looks like A. plana and the last one is a Ponape Birdsnest. ORA corals only have the black plastic plugs
