    Hey 3reefers! I was wondering if you would be so kind to help ID some SPS I received and are taking off. Thanks in advance.

    Dont worry about the birdnest, I know that one. Thanks again LG!

    First one might be an Acropora tortuosa and the second one could be Acropora formosa.

    The one on the left in the first photo is a millepora; on the right might be tortuosa but I'm not totally convinced.

    Agree on formosa in the second photo.

    Not sure what the first one is but I don't believe it is a tort....stalk is a bit too small. Is the second one really slimey?
