    Thanks in advance for the soon to come replies. I picked these up from a guy in town and lost his number so now I can not get the names from him.

    This is a light green color.

    This one is tucked in the rock but it is a branching type coral.

    Thanks LVsuckerfish I think I found the correct spelling (Pocillopora). It looks like it is a match. So 1 down 2 to go.

    Top two are acros. Couldnt give you the "pet" names but they do appear to be acros. Bottom pic appears to be goniopora to me, not poci.

    the first could also be turaki. It's hard to say without really really clear pics.

    2nd pic... You say has blue tips, could be a blue tip stag.

    Frags are tough to tell on alotta acro.

    Thats ok... I have a few acro frags I havent a clue on their names.
