Frag ID

[cvin17]

I received these two corals in a frag pack. I'm not sure what the pink one is but I think the second one is a bubble coral that hasn't yet opened (it's been 2 weeks). Thoughts?

First looks like a dendro, second is a cynarina (a species of open brain coral).

I second the motion. Dendro aka sun coral, needs to be spot fed, they dont like a lot of light and typically open at night.

If neither have opened by this point during the day or at night do you think that they are dead?

The second one is opened. The first is nonphotosynthetic and will open when it wants food.

Got it. Thanks so much for answering a newbie. Cheers!
