I bought these frags this week, I'm extremely new to SPS and would appreciate and ID and any care tips.

Thanks in advance,

This is some sort of Montipora, I think:

This is my only other SPS (not including the acropora that didn't make it). I don't need an ID on this one, just showing the growth.

1) Montipora Digitata
2) Montipora capricornics (spelling)
Not sure about the 3rd one but might be pocillipora?
 
I agree with Cody on first two. Third looks like a stylophora to me. Digi is pretty stressed btw. No polyp extension in either photo.
 
3rd Red Monti Cap
4th one Green Halo Birds Nest..
5th Pic is Pocilipora

First two (same coral different picture) are Montipora Digi's
These Unhappy ones!

I conur with Nuke!
 
First two pics are indeed the same coral (with and without the flash). Any ideas on what I can do to make it happier? It has only been in the tank since Wed. It is in the middle of my tank. I was debating on whether to move it up or down or just let it be. I did a water change this morning, so maybe that will help.

4th and 5th pics are of the same coral. The 5th pic is after being in my tank for 2 months. I've been really pleased with it so far.

I'm probably don't have the experience to be successful, but I bought a blue acropora today from Premium because the price couldn't be beat. I'll try to post a pic of it, but it probably won't be until Sunday.
