I also think #2 is a plate coral

#1 is Leptoseris, not Leptastrea.
#2 is probably a baby Fungia, but need to grow a bit for positive ID. A pic of the bottom would help. #3 is certainly a Faviid. Sent from my Dungeon using mad Ninja Skillz. |

Well, at least whatever #2 is, it appears to be alive still. It looks like its flesh is expanding (it's still on the sand), when food/water from the baster goes over it it contracts, and has little tiny spikey looking things on the topside (tentacles?). Yay!
#1 doesn't appear to have much of a change yet. I haven't seen the mouths move. I saw a suggestion on another forum for someone else inquiring about bleached corals. They suggested putting a small piece of Mysis or brine on each mouth and turning off all flow for 20 minutes for a couple nights in the hope it eats it. I've also been dosing some vitamins and such. |

#2 is definitely a plate. I just watched it devour a brine shrimp whole from the little suspected mouth up top. Glad to see this one has hope! As for the other one, I guess I just have to wait to see if it colours up??

update on frags:
the plate appears to be growing, and has two mouths that I have observed eating brine and Mysis. The Mysis is still a bit too big for it, but it tries its best. It looks like it is getting some colour, and its tentacles are really easy to see now. The other frag has picked up a more tan colour, though I have noticed in the past couple days that it is getting those white bumps on it. Any suggestions as to what they are? I had moved it down at one point as the frag kept falling off, and recently moved it back to the original mid-tank point (compact T5 lights). I can't tell if it is new growth or some sort of deadness. |
