I am not new to reef keeping however, I am new to keeping SPS. I took some time to look on different site such as coralidea.com, etc... and I am having a heck of a time IDing my sticks.
I would appreciate any help in IDing the following corals.

tough to tell at this size, when they grow out a bit, it will be a little easier.

Are you taking the pics with the flash on? Color helps a ton when identifying sps

All three appear to be Acropora sp.
Identification beyond the genus level is more or less impossible without examining the skeleton. And even then, it may be more or less impossible.

Yes I am. If I take it with the flash off, my pics come out solid blue, lol. Sean advised me to adjust the white balance on the camera. I will do this the next batch of pictures.
