Can someone help me i.d. a couple corals I got from aquashella. I tried to take best pics possible. Thank you for your help :) I Wana say one is a yellow pavona but not 100% ..another I believe is leptoseris..its all yellow with little green dots but again I'm not sure. And the last one I have no idea.. its a flat piece like a flake I couldn't even remove from frag plug if I wanted to. It has alot of tiny yellow dots.

orange lumpy ball might be a lepto? Pavona?? Brown lump with spikes reminds me a bit of stylocoeniella growth I have seen, but can't see polyps in the photo (does look like a zoa or paly growing on it). The flat one. . . who knows. . . encrusting monti, remnants of an acro, IDK.

I know we are always asking for white light pics, but what is the color temp of this lighting?

Since I have them in qt I don't have a reef light for it so I use an aqueon led. 1st level of bright white with added blue green and red. The white can go up about 4 levels of brightness so I have it on the lowest. And yes there's a zoa on there but it hasn't opened in the last day. I don't think my corals like my qt

I tried getting them in white lights. Hope it helps.
The yellow one is either a Psammocora or a colonial Cycloseris (C. wellsi, explanulata, mokai). The orange wrinkly one is Leptoseris mycetoseroides. The flat one is probably Stylocoeniella.

Yess! I asked the names when I purchased them so I was waiting for someone to say a name that rang in my head...psammocora rings a bell and leptoseris for sure.. I'm still confused on the last one. It was purchased in a mystery bag. I'm wondering where I should place it in the DT. Thank you so much for your help :)
