Happy Saturday everyone!

Any idea on what these 2 corals are? I’ve had them for a little while, but never had them ID’d. I’m looking more for the coral type than the current “Hot” name.

thanks!

First looks like a stylo. Second is definitely some form of acro. Hard for my amateur eye to say more without seeing a colony

Not sure on the first coral but I think the second is a miyagi tort (a type of Acropora)
After looking at some Miyagi Tort pics, I agree that it is probably what I have. Thanks!

No problem! In my experience, it keeps its color the best under lower light. At higher par it starts to get pale.

Mine has been a fast grower and very forgiving.
