hey guys, Ive got a good load of acros in my tank myself that I have no idea what to call, any of these look familiar to anyone? lookin for anything, scientific or market name.

this is a fuzzy one that is supposed to be a darker pink than what it is now

this is a frag i saved off of a colony that died almost as soon as i got it, but the frags i saved are all healthy so thank god for that. it grew out of a very uniform looking bush-like colony

I have a very similar colony to this one but haven't ID'd it yet.

This looks like A. sarmentosa to me.

This looks like A. secale but I could be wrong.

I can tell you that is not a pearlberry. It looks more like a tri-color validia(spelling may be offl; not sure about the name but that is what is coming up from memory.)

Looks like a type of millepora.
