Need help with some ID guesses

Post by Xster »

I just got a couple of corals a while back and trying to ID them is a PITA. Maybe one of you have seen any of these acros identified before, or even have one already. Please help me.

Second one

Third one

Thanks in advance, John

Just a guess but #2 looks similar to a Acropora plana and #3 has the coralite structure of a A. rudis. I didn't look through all of the options though and I don't have COW.

Thanks Scott. Any ideas on the first one? I just hate to referring them as a "green acro with purple tips that is stag-like."

Can you get a close pic of the first one? Just need to see radial coralites but if you can get a axial in there too that might help.
