Bought my first 4 corals from the LFS today and was dubious about their identification.

I went in looking for a green star polyp.
Pics and their identification below.

Anyone kind enough to help confirm identity would be greatly appreciated.

Difficult to tell Blasto and Galaxea coral. They are still closed up.


Look for purple mat when close up and the first pic looks like GSP while the 3rd one looks like Pipe organ.

Let them settle down and open up and take pics again.
