if you could help identify them that’d be cool too, but the green open brain coral looking one has those brown strings out from under it, what’s that maybe a parasite

The weird one that looks like a Duncan has been completely open and seemingly happy but there’s that one closed polyp and it has fuzz and red stuff idk what that’s about so a different bacterial infection or algae or sun

And the frogspawn is dying, idk why or if it has progressed but I had a wall hammer and he was also half dead, idk too if he was progressing but we tried to drag him and it stunk so bad so maybe brown jelly or idk if they usually stink the was also a lot of mucus looking stuff when we put him back in the stank that we took out

Thanks I can’t really tell you anything about parameter other than ammonia is 0 nitrites and nitrates are less than 1 ppm and salinity is like 1.024 and the tank is about a month old

Trachyphyllia geoffori

looks good

Ducanopsammia axifuga

looks good, maybe keep an eye on the algea on the skeleton/stalk, make sure it does not start getting out of control.

Very odd looking euphyllia, shows traits of E. paraancora and traits of E. divsia/paradivisa very odd, I notice there is a dead head, I usually cut those off, the living heads look healthy though, whatever species it is, again, very odd, hybrid maybe?
Not a euphyllia guy so IDK
