I Need Coral ID's..! Fast..!

[Big Tex]

So I'm at my lrs right now and I need some identifications fast!

The first pic is what looks to be a birdsnest, maybe another sps and a monti? These are all $29 I definitely want a few,

The second pic is of some small 1.5" frags for $19 and I would love a few as well, some nice color on them too,

Lastly the zoa colonies are $39 with a minimum 75-100 heads on each, I really want one,

Thanks in advance guys I can't wait to take these home!

The first are BNs to the left the second and third are favias

Hmm maybe they're...they look to clubby though. Maybe I'm just blind too lol either way they're about same care level. Are the green ones encrusted on the plug?

 

[BigRedsReefs10]

You may be right on the few to the right, I wasn't sure if they were thick birds or pocis

 

[bribo12]

The pink one is for sure birdsnest though

 

[BigRedsReefs10]

That one front and center looks fully encrusted over the plug

yes the green ones are encrusted onto the plugs, and how are the care levels of favia and procis?

 

[bribo12]

Favia are pretty easy, slow growers. Pocci are about the same care as birdsnest. Relatively easy sps

 

[Big Tex]

so theyre both slow growers? i have a green birdsnest already and its growing like a weed in my tank.

 

[bribo12]

No poccillopora are fast growing. Favia are slow

 

[Big Tex]

alright guys, thanks for the id's ill be taking home the purple and green favia and the poci up front and center!

 

[bribo12]

Very nice!

Last picture are zoanthids. They are easy to keep corals and are beautifull under actinic lights.

Just make sure you dip new corals with iodine, as they can carry things like nudibranches or diseases...
