New coralS :)
Hey guys I just got 3 new feats from a person on CL not bad for $5 a frag.
The green mushroom

And two types of polyps

Any one know the names of these two??

Do you think this guy is reaching for more light ?

Hard to say for sure with the first of the two in question since there are several different types of soft corals which have polyps similar to those (e.g., clavuarlia, tubipora, anthelia, briareum, etc).

And anthelia:

Getting a good look at the coral's matting or base tissue when the polyps are completely retracted would offer additional clues.
If I had to guess to guess as to the ID of the 2nd coral in question I'm leaning toward pachyclavuria (green star polyps).

The first of the unkouwn corals looks to me like a type spreading Gorgonian that i have and the second looks like GSP (green star polyps)
