Coral ID's? (lots of low-res photos)


Phantom

Recommended Posts

I've just purchased the contents of lambo's marine tank and am running it in a Juwel Rio 400. This is my first real venture into reefkeeping.

Before I confirm the positions of corals, I wanted to make sure I learnt about them all and found out the right conditions and if there are any conflicts with other corals. Can you please help me ensure I have the correct names and help identify the few I don't know. If you need higher res shots of anything, please ask.

Thanks :)

First, 2 FTS's how the tank looks at the moment. I plan to keep this layout, but change the positions of corals once I know what can go where.

looks like xenia to me a lot of nice corals there too ive always called the green frogspawn you have hammer coral but im unsure if thats just another nickname for it

i think this one is neon green candycane, its bloody nice under actinic and if you shine a torch on it an hour after the lights go out you will see its feeder tentacles
