Identification

Nubee mistake but I bought 5 corals without knowing what they are, what light intensity and water flow they like. Could you guy help me out please.

Can you give a pic of each coral

Left to right goni, can’t see, acan, gsp, Rhodactis. Closer pics would help to confirm.

GSP low light level

Mushroom coral also Low light level



And I don't know anything about goniopora because they are super hard to keep
Acan moderate

Think the first one might be a Favia.

1. Leptoseris (medium light, medium to high flow)

GSP low light level

Mushroom coral also Low light level

Adding on for Goniopora, it’s recommended to feed them though. I think a quick search on this forum what what to feed Goniopora would help you alot.

That’s good to hear. Also a little warning on the leptoseris, though they are categorised as sps, they emit sweeper tentacles. So try to give them some space.

The red with green centers is a war coral. (Favites sp.)

The one people are calling goniopora looks like the soft coral Xenia to me.

From lest to right, on post #4, I'm seeing:

Xenia
Favia/Favites/Goneastrea - I can't tell those apart. It's not an Acan lord, but maybe Acan echinata
Green star polyps
Mushroom

I think the easiest way to confirm is for OP to turkey baster the suspected Goni and take a picture of its base. If there’s a skeleton then its a Goni.
