    Hello, I picked these corals up this past week. The person didn't know exactly what they were? IMG_0261.jpg

    It is a dry heat, yeah right !
    First image is a Gorgonian.

    Second looks like a Valida, not sure on that one though.

    First one looks like a non photosythetic sea fan of some sort.

    as for number two. I havent the slightest clue. im sure this bump will help with that.

    Great job everyone. Definitely a blueberry. The other looks like a valida but a lot of the pics online look different while the odd one look similar ? So hard to tell with all the different species out there. Oh and I'm new to sps and Lps, so that doesn't help !
