    hi,i got my first ever frag order today from fragalot,problem is i can only make out 2 of the 10 i ordered.would it be so hard to write on each bag as to what it is?i would appreciate if you could help me id the other 8 so after a few weeks of being on the bottom ill know if i have to move them midway or higher in my tank.
    and i can then look each one up and see how to care for them.

    i think pic3 is blue polyp acro
    and pic 7 is neon frogspawn.

    1st 5 pics

    1, 4 and 5 are Zoathids
    2 is a Faviid
    3, 8 and 9 are Acroporas
    6 Cloves
    7 Frogspawn
    and 10 Goniopora

    I dont mean to be that buy, but those frags look a little rough. The war coral (#2) looks pretty white around the edges like it was fresh cut & probably shouldve healed better before shipping. #10 looks like it has bubble algae growing on the frag.

    I hope you dipped them or something at least. A quarentine tank wouldve definitely been preferred I think in this case.

    1.probably a leptastrea
    2.hard to make out but probably some kind of chalice
    3.some kind of acropora
    4.zoanthids or palythoas(they look like candy apple red zoas but its hard to tell since theyre closed)
    5.some kind of zoanthid or playthoas(i have a colony of palys that look similar to those)
