coral identification

I purchased this mushroom from Aqua SD back in November 2020. It was really unique; nothing I had ever seen from ASD before and it was reasonable priced. It was named "Lava Bounce Mushroom." Obviously, it's not a true bounce mushroom, but it does have several round, green "bubbles." I have...

Hi all, Quick info: I was really into reef and plant tanks between 2001-2010. Unfortunately work required me to travel for the next 8 years of my life. Just bought a house and whipped out my old gear. Set up a mixed reef tank that has been running for 2 months. Local Petco shut down so I bought...

Hi Friends! Can anyone help with identifying this coral? The base is white and the polyps are a neon green/yellow. Thank you in advance!

Can someone please help me get an idea of what kind of torch this is, I picked it up at the LFS cause it looked unique and thought I’d try and revive him. I’ve had him for a couple weeks and he’s looking better but I don’t know what kind of torch it is, it seems to have different coral tentacles...

Was shocked to see a very different type of soft coral in 2 feet of water on the fore-reef (Rasdhoo Island, Maldives) the other day. This area is very shallow with high temps and a fair amount of turbidity (suspended sand particles if the waves are slamming). The coral is very stiff (wave...

Anyone know the ID? Someone said reverse gorilla nipples but it doesn’t match exactly. Mine has more green yellow inside(sorry i cant see certain colours so im not sure). Looking for another guess or opinion. Thanks

Hi all, I recently had this coral sent with a load of Zoa’s I ordered and I’m struggling to identify it. I had to refix it on the plug as it became separated and it’s been looking a little sorry for itself the last few days. Many thanks in advance.

Can anyone identify this coral please?

Heya yall! I got one heck of a doozie for you! I bought a live rock for some sponge growing on it but I noticed what looks like a coral...or more than one type? I have no idea if the second one is a coral. It looks like it has coral features. Likewise, I'm almost certain this is a coral...

Hello everyone, Could someone please help me ID this chalice? Thanks!

I got this about a week ago from a LFS and never found out what it was. Got curious and tried looking it up, but had no luck. Any thoughts?

Was moving around my scape and just barely caught a glimpse of this guy and was hecka confused. Took a closer look and figured I’d just ask for help identifying it I’m thinking a pseudo but not quite sure.

I recently bought this frag for $10 but I’m not quite too sure what it is. Also, in the first image (present time) the polyps are down, is this an indication of decreased happiness or too much flow?

Hey everyone! So we bought this beautiful blastomussa yesterday & the lady said it was a newer kind of blasto that stays much smaller (im new with corals) & I know it’s not an Acanlord :/ Can you pls help me identify this? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!

So I recently purchased 3 corals but my brain refuses to let me remember what they are. I should have written it down before I left my LFS guess I was to excited! Please help! I’m pretty sure the one to the far right is a Zoa. The first pic will be of all three together and then I’ll crop them...

Hey guys I got some zoa from a LFS that are a bright orange with a white ring around an orange mouth. All I have for pics is my iPhone which is terrible but I’m wondering if anyone can see if they’re possibly creamsicles?

I got these for 10$ yesterday and I have no idea what they are. They have an orange core under the black lights and an orange ring around the outside of the bell. I’m happy with any guesses.
