Hey there,
I have a couple corals that I didn't get a name with them, or I've forgotten the name. Just looking for a little sps ID help here...

First pic has 2 I'm not too sure on... the white branching one has metallic green polyps. The other, I've been told, is either a Purple Bonsai or a purple Nana Acro

Here's a very fragile little guy

finally, this neon green one. It looks like a crumpled up leaf and has small sweeper arms at night

first pic, left side might be a stylo ...it's actually white with metallic green polyps. My camera work isn't the greatest though lol. I've got a Rebel T3 but no idea how to use it to it's full potential :razz:

First pic left looks more like a pocillopora. Known for spawnig in an aquarium. The one on the right is a tricolour, nana or valida.

Second pic looks like a deepwater sps. Maybe a.turaki or a.awi. really had to tell at that small size.

Third i agree is geen pavona.
