Coral ID reference

[charlesr1958]

After much eye ball wear and tear, thought I would make a few of my coral identification pages available for anyones future use as well as just being able to show my pride and joys. I have quite a few other corals, but am still not 100 percent sure of their identifications yet.

Acanthastrea rotundoflora

Lithophyllon undulatum

Favia Rotundata

The favia feeding at night is really cool! Nice postings! Thanks!

Thanks, I just pinned down another ID today as well, had been calling this coral a fungia rapanda for the last year or so, but was never sure, so spent the time to look into it and found that it is acualy a Cycloseris patelliformis

The picture of the Favia feeding is spectacular!

Have to admit, that is probably one of most unusual of the Favias, its not much on color but its fleshiness really made it stand out. Was a bit surprised myself when I saw it feeding the first night it was in my tank. About every third night I feed it some fnely chopped mysis and it will eat ALOT.
