I have gathered a few corals and I’m not sure what they are anyone willing to take a stab at it? All photos taken with iPhone X

First is my full tank shot. Photo taken with a clip on filter at night. Can you spot all the corals?

#1

#2

#3

#4

#5 - This one lost its color and seems bleached. A new head has not formed in 3 years.

#6

#7 - one month in

#8 - one month in.

#9 -this guy is crusting over the rock nicely. He made a couple extensions early on but has since only been crusting outward. Polyp extension not really showing in photo.

#10 - same color as when I bought it. Looks bleached? Started with 2 heads now almost 6.

#11- I cant get a good photo of this one and it is bugging me.

I'm by no means an expert but

1 - common green palythoa
2 - ???
3 - some kind of blastomussa
4 - ???
5 - frogspawn
6 - blastomussa merletti? i'm not super confident on this one
7 - ???
8 - meteor shower cyphastrea (i think)
9 - some type of acropora
10 - candy cane (caulastrea sp.)
11 - red montipora cap

Thanks guys. I always thought #6 was a Favia because a couple people told me that. Anyone think I should move the placement around?

Looks like your getting decent growth, I'd leave them be.

Agree with all except 6 and 9. 6 looks like some other kind of “closed brain” LPS to me but not sure exactly what. Shape/PE on 9 does not resemble any millepora I’ve seen but it is some species of acro.

Brain?? Sounds good. I paid 10 bucks for a frag with only two eyes
