Coral 1: always shruken, looks permanently unhappy.
Coral 2: shown steady growth, about double when i got it last dec.
Coral 3: I think this is Acan echinata, again doubled in size, never seen sweepers from it, but it stripped a chunk off a nearby cyphastrea.
Coral 4: often has it's tentacles out early in the morning (as shown). Slow steady growth.
I would greatly appreciate IDs on these corals.
I have 3 flame angels in that tank, any Lordhowensis I've put in there got reduced to nothing pretty fast. I also think that's whats happened to Coral 1, despite me never actually witnessing browsing by them. However I am now noticing that asterina with that streak of matching orange in it's flesh and wondering if that's what's happened instead?
IF coral 3 is an echinata, am I ok to put another echinata next to it or will they fight even amongst themselves?
