Looking for an ID on these guys. They were given to me a while ago by a guy who was taking down his tank. They have grown quite a bit since I've had them.

Thanks in advance.


A:) Orange color, kind of delicate.

Interested in the first pic. Kinda looks like my Tropicana Anacropora, but i’m a noob stick head and i’m probably wrong.
 
Emmmmm Montipora Setosa and a Tortuosa maybe.....
 
1st one is Monti, not setosa or Anacropora; note papillae which neither genus/species has. I believe Reef Builders did an article on this morph a few years ago.
