First off sorry for the not so great pics it's on my iPhone 4s and under led lights


New to SPS and have had 2 in question for about 3 weeks. First is Ora birdsnest just not sure which one. It's green tips purple polyps and orange or Pink bodied.

Second was a cheapo for $5 it was not looking to good at the store but thought I would give it a shot. It is actually coloring up slowly from the tip purple. It has neon green polyps and opens up nicely when I don't stick my hand in the tank to move it LOL.

Thanks in advance I know these are prob pretty common SPS but I have been trying to find them and can't.
 
The last one looks like a tricolor valida.
(which has always looked more like an acropora nana to me rather than a valida...)
 
Thanks guys. I was stumped on the valida. I knew the other was a slimmer and didn't know the exact birdsnest. I appreciate the responses.

NVfishman is there a reason you got rid of the colony or was it to make room for another type of SPS? Too common?
 
Im trying to get the best and the brightest acros and a few other sps ;)

the color was not as intense as the screaming green ora birds or the bird of paridise, hated to waste the space

it grows quick like most birdnests and almost indestructible
I have 5 types of birdsnest still
