1. It could be a ORA Borealis only of it is on the black spike ORA frag plug. If it is not then there would be no point to slap that name on it. I would guess navini http://sdmas.com/corals/835.php. It has lots of red bugs on it BTW. Hope it is in quarantine.
2. I am guessing nasuta http://sdmas.com/corals/51.php.
3. Too small to tell, but it is not Gomezi http://sdmas.com/corals/922.php. It would have knob like coralites by now if it did.
4. Also too small to ID. Let em grow out.
5. The tips don't match lokani http://sdmas.com/corals/621.php, maybe speciosa http://sdmas.com/corals/791.php.
6. Insignis possibly http://sdmas.com/corals/513.php.
7. Divaricata for the last http://sdmas.com/corals/24.php.
 
No way the first coral is A navini. Red bugs like crazy tho.

I dont see any AEFW bites, just random recession on underside. I have had many acros do this for no reason and I def do not have AEFW. AEFW would leave round, uniform bites and extreme recession if they reach plague status.
 
The first photo is a Ora Borealis, bought it as such. I bought way too many named frags at one time. Put most name on list to coral already.

I quarantined #7 and glad that the marks has not spread, makes me think it's not AEFW. Also have dipped a couple times in CoralRx, did not see any worms or eggs. I also used a zoom in macro lens on all the other SPS in the tank and do not see any bite marks.

Going to use the Interceptor in a couple weeks to try and rid the red bugs.
