name that coral! with prizes

[Fishhead89]

Good evening ladies and gents.

Step right up - it's time again to play Name that Coral! I was lucky enough to get into Aquavalley this weekend, and picked up a beaut. Az said it was a fire coral - that he didn't know much about it. What do you think it is... (it's pink / purple and this is a side shot... not the best, i'll have to take another with an actual camera.) I'm pretty sure I know it's identity, and from the info I've found online it may be moving tanks or tank position shortly.



In shot #2, we have a gorgeous yellow Acro I picked up from Az (pre $39 all coral sale). To it's left there is a plate coral, I completely blank on the name of it. Who knows what this one is?

If anyone gets both, I'll throw in a prize - a reef roids container filled with dried cycolpeze (or a small DT's bottle full of homebrew Phytoplankton)



and if you're bored check out my businesses.. www.cowguys.com, www.orbitaltalent.com

I really have to start using a real camera for fishtank shots, not just my Iphone....

Ah crud, that purple one was what i was hoping to check out when i went on saturday!  (assuming it's the one from the photo) guess you got there before me, good find.

I would say it's a pink cat's paw, maybe a Stylophora sp., the bottom one on the left side looks like a pagoda coral, Turbinari sp.?

correct with the pagoda..

still looking for the purple one. Just found out it's rather hard to care for.. filter feeder. Good thing it's beautiful.
