they are all acros, 3 might be a granulosa, beyond that i would need closer pics of the coralites, with polyps retracted.

don't you mean #1?? my guess for #1 would be granulosa or loripes....

i would go with that for 1, but i also think three is granulosa or loripes. as it looks very similiar to one i have.

those top branches look too chubby to me IMO. it has allot of girth and then slenders down into a pyramid look with lots of tiny coralites all the way around. that doesn't look like a granulosa IMO.

i know what you are saying, but i bet once it grows out it will look similiar to this one

the way this one has grown is up, thicken, then sprout branches to the side, which appears to be happening in pic 3. you really can't base id on branch thickness or corallite placement, as these are primarly determined by water flow,
