Hey! I was hoping for a little help with identifying some coral I have in my tank. I've received great responses already with help identifying other coral in the tank and I would love for that to continue.

Thank you so much in advance for helping someone new to saltwater tanks!

#1: Sun coral (with an aiptasia in the middle: https://www.reef2reef.com/threads/poll-aiptasia-removal-what-has-worked-for-you.344103/)

#2: Goniopora (Also called the flower pot coral)

#3: Sort of looks like a bubble coral but I've never seen one with such a wide oral disc (the smooth/flat part in the middle of it)

#4: Could be a trachyphyllia but also looks like a cynarina, not sure.

Perhaps the #reefsquad can confirm some of my guesses.

I would have to agree with your choices :)

I would go with these. Get rid of that aiptasia asap. Can spread and cause a lot of problems
