I have two frags that I’m not sure what they exactly are, and I also have a blastomussa which may have aiptasia but not 100% sure. I’ll put the links to videos below. Thanks in advance!

There's some coral growing on my Astrea snail, and I can't figure out if it's Goni, cyphastria, or stylo. If anyone knows that would be greatly appreciated!
I got a ton of coral from my university because they're done researching them and didn't know what to do with them. They're in rough shape because they aren't aquarists (microbiologists). Most have too little flesh to get an accurate ID so I've cleaned the algae off their exposed skeletons, gave...
Hello everyone,
I need help identifying this leather coral I bought last night from a reputable coral shop here in Alabama. The owner was actually stumped because it came in a new shipment and doesn’t look like most branching leathers he has seen or ordered previously. It actually had a green...
This mystery coral started to grow a while back. I’ve researched and researched trying to figure out what it is to no avail. It doesn’t seem to bother the other corals so I haven’t tried to dispose of it because I think it’s kind of pretty. It has red coloring and almost reminds me of maple...
Been trying to figure out what coral this is. It came back from an old “dead” mystery frag from 2 years ago that I fried with too high placement and halide lighting. I introduced some red and blue mushrooms. Actually saw the red Polyps a week later and thought I was about to have a bad...
I bought this coral a few weeks ago labeled as a frag and nothing else I'm not sure if it's a torch or a hammer coral. Any help would be great. Thank you
Purchased this today. its my first soft coral besides Zoanthus. It came into my LFS labelled Miscellaneous Leather. really doesn't look like anything I've seen or that I'm familiar with. it first I thought it was a Stylophora or some other similar sps like Pocillopora or Porites
when disturbed...
Got this coral for free from someone local and don’t know the specific name. What type of acan is this? Is it just a green hammer? Also the other green might be pavona sps? Lastly frogspawn? Just looking for their specific names so I know what I have. Thank you!
Hey guys what is the LPS that is circled here? We can’t figure it out. It’s not mine I did not buy it not knowing what it is. A friend has it and believes it’s an acan but it looks like a rarer color of candy canes to me that I’ve never seen .
Hi, wondering what this coral is? A baby of it started growing on my boss's powerhead cord and he is letting me frag the baby and take it home to my tank. (Yes I see the mountains of aptasia, I have a peppermint shrimp and she can take care of it if/when it pops up on the frag)
Sorry if in wrong place but didn’t know what this coral is? The guy I bought it from said he couldn’t remember either. It is a very small piece so hope you can see it. Thanks so much for your help
I have this coral and this bi-color blenny that seems to love perching on my corals and I have even seen him picking at it as if he’s trying to eat it. My first question was what is the name of this coral? I only bought it a month ago and forgot what it was called but I want more. And my other...
Won this coral by bid just over a year ago. It was listed as ‘yellow eyed favia’. It was like 1 inch in size when i got it. It grows slow but it suddenly will have a growth spurt sometimes. Its now on a 2 inch plate cause it over grew the one it came on. I realised the polyps are getting bigger...
Can someone please help identify the greenish (sorry I'm colorblind) coral that is fallen over. I think it's some sort of leather coral but I'm not sure. Every few weeks it tips over and usually goes back to normal within a day or so. I've had it over a year and the water parameters have been...
I bought a shell that had a few polyps of utter chaos zoas on it. A few months later a new zoa that was most certainly not an utter chos sprouted a couple polyps. I have been trying to ID it to no avail. Can someone identify this zoa?
Got some corals from a tank tear down and don’t know what they are. Normally I’d research before a new purchase but these were given to me. Hard to turn that down.
Looking for someone who knows more about coral identification than I. I went to my local fish store a few weeks ago and they game me a free coral. I was told it was an acan, but it doesn't look like an acan coral now that it has begun to grow and heal. It is on a 1 inch plug for reference.
