Sorry I don't have any idea on the id's but they are awsome corals, any chance you will be fragging them in the near future? And the pics aren't that bad of quality.

maybe if you wanna trade, the most fragging i will be doing anytime soon is for a trade, but you want something i don't have yet i can always find a place to cut a coral

although i do have a small frag of the green w/the purple polyped table its just of the encrusted base which is in my opinion better because the corallites will grow according more according to its needs.

About the only coral that i have that is fraggable is a blastomusa merleti. And this coral not quite sure what it is though.

the top could be a wierd acro nana or an astreopora or some kind... lps dont really like the flow of my tank or the par rating... a little too much for them im sure. anything else?

 

[burkleman]

unfortunately I really only have frags sps wise, I just can't seem to keep sps colonies from rtning, every one i have bought rtn with in a couple weeks but frags do great. sorry.

Brandon

 

[castorpollux]

wow! thats not good! what kind of flow do you have? and what kind of lights?

 

[burkleman]

I have mh for lighting and am working on getting a closed loop to take over for the power heads i have in there now.

its probably a flow or water quality issue then
