Help Me ID

[Adrian Em]

Hey folks! Relatively new to the hobby. After reading many ID posts, seems like a lot of LFS don’t give accurate names/types of coral they sell. Wanted to post some of what I have in my tank to get some input. Nothing special, all just run of the mill stuff. but I don’t think I have the proper names for anything. Any help appreciated.

Anyone knows the name of these? Particularly interested in finding out what the orange zoas and purple with green lash zoas are called.

First of these three could be a mummy eye chalice. Purple monster zoas, depending on the patterns. The orange zoas could be mandarin orange zoas or super Saiyans.

First one is a zoa, need more detailed shot, second one is an indo green and blue tipped branching frammer (most might call it a hammer), third is a mint green Duncan, fourth looks like an orange leptoseris, fifth is a zoa (need a more detailed shot), sixth is hard to tell from the photo and need a closer shot but looks like a blue lepto or blue pavona, seven is really hard based on the photo could be a red monti or a chalice or other encrusted, eighth is a green pocillapora, and last one is a green tipped hammer.

1. Zoanthus sp.
2. Fimbriaphyllia sp.
3. Duncanopsammia axifuga
4. cf Leptoseris; a little hard to tell. Do you have a clearer picture?
5. Zoanthus sp.
6. Pavona sp. Also a little hard to tell.
7. maybe lobophylliid chalice; I would need a clearer picture of this one also.
8. Pocillopora cf damicornis
9. Fimbriaphyllia sp.

1. chalice; not sure the genus, or even the family
2. Zoanthus
3. mixed Zoanthus and Palythoa

The purple ones are "purple heart" zoas. orange ones still not identified. The pictures arent the best.
