    Hey Everyone- I hope you all are doing well.

    Can someone help me ID the below two corals? My wife got the one for me and can't remember what they told her it was and the other I got and can't remember.. Looks like we need some short term memory help!!! :confused:

    K+ for the help! Looked them up and they appear to be an easy coral to care for. Any one have anything I should consider?

    Cynarina has a lot of tissue to support. Target feeding with meaty foods like krill is highly recommended. Periodic feeding of brine or mysis after the lights have been out for a couple hours will help the favia grow faster.
