Hello everyone,

Quick post to see if there's anyone out there who can help me ID a few of these corals (Latin names if possible) or even willing to take a guess...

Bit of history about them, all of them are Mariculture imports I Nag my local LFS to get in for me (They don't stock SPS so I basically get what shows up on the import).

1st red/pinkish acro I've had for around 1 year, came in looking a bit brown but is starting to colour up and new growth is pinkish with green/yellow tips.

2nd is a coral I received recently, polyps are small and clear at the top corallites but seem to have a purple/redish tinge to them in the shaded areas (makes me consider giving it less light, currently sitting around 270 par T5's/Led.

3rd coral I was told is a Black Sabbath my LFS took in from a tank shutdown but would prefer to know the proper latin name if anyone can help? Possible Turaki?

The Final Photo has 2 corals from a recent import in it, I'm sure the higher back coral is a Valida but I have no idea what the lower coral in that photo is...

Thanks for any help.
AB.
