which corals these are

[Lauramichelle]

I'm not sure which corals these are but I think they might be a green monti, a red plate monti, and a recordea.
Any help would be appreciated.

The first and second pictures actually look like a candy cane coral.Others you're right.

Thank you Rick.

I see where you are coming from with the colour of these first two Rick, although I would say both were Green Monti.

First and second photo appears to be hydnophora.

The coral in the last photo is ricordea.

I was going by what appear to be heads in the coral,look like candy cane heads not fully open.See this picture.

Ok, I added a little coral plankton food. The red plate monti has changed from a flat plate, into a slight bowl shape. I'm assuming to capture food. Correct? Or should I worry?

 

[paulace2372]

I wouldn't worry. corals change shape all the time either feeding or when light varies. Observe the behaviour of the corals and over a month or so you will know if there is anything out of the ordinary with them.

Thank you Paulac
Here is a photo of it from this morning. It became sort of fuzzy

 

[paulace2372]

That appears fine, polyps responding to light.

 

[Lauramichelle]

Great! Thank you do much.

Ok, so I placed my Ricordea on the sand bed (with plug) as directed. It seems to act like its trying to pull itself off of the plug. Is this normal? Or should I move it? Thank you
