I really hate designer names and I am a novice at looking at an acro's coralites and knowing where it comes from and what kind of light it needs. I like to log whenever I add a coral to the tank and read up on its origins. I have recently added the following and aside from the rainbow delight I cant find much info. Can anyone help me out?

Rainbow delight Acropora
Jason Fox Grape juice Acropora
ATL Silver bullet Acropora
BC Ponape Rainbow
Rainbow Nasuta Acropora
 
Rainbow Delight/ BC Ponape are like A. Subulata, I believe. JF Grape probably A. Austera. ATL Silver A. Prostrata/Millepora. And you guessed it.. Rainbow Nasuta is A. Nasuta

Searching any of those species will likely bring up some info on their origins.
