Expert? nahh, I just like sticks.

Id'ing little nubs is very difficult, I encourage other opinions because without seeing developed colonies, its anyones guess really.



1. Maybe verweyi ? austera?

2. tortuosa ? vaughnai ? navini?

3. loisettae /surf and turf

4. secale?

5. agree, could be milliepora?
 
Thanks for taking a shot at it. Given that I paid a net of $8 for the frags, I'm pleasantly surprised to hear that they could be different species! I figured you'd tell me they were all the same except for the millepora.

The one colony kind of looks like an ORA ice tort to me, but I'm definitely not an expert. Heck, acros didn't even start growing well in my system until the last six months. Lol
