I bought a couple of new corals for a real good price and just wanted to verify the exact type. I know the pictures are bad so if you cant ID thats OK. Thanks

OH ya, I know most are an ugly brown but hopefully they will color up nice like the rest did in a few weeks.

and the last.........I know what he is but thought I would show him off. I know everyone will say GOOD LUCK with that one but I feel very confident I can do this. I've been planning this tank for him for quite some time now and have plenty of coraline algae, different types of sponges, etc.......I quess time will tell. On a positive note, I know the people well were I got him from and is in real shape. Nice and fat. So far he is eating all the different foods I put in there as well I always picking on the rocks and in the cracks. Like I said though, only time will tell.

yes, coral #4 which is pic 5 may be a mille, but it is hard to tell because it is so small
