Now that my MH are installed, I was finally about to pick up a bunch of SPS for
my 55g. However, I don't really know what's what, so feel free to fill in any
blanks with either the common or the scientific names. That way I'll know which
coral I'm reading about if someone else has the same. :)

And even if you don't know any of the ID's, enjoy the pictures.

Trying to ID spceies from photos is not to reliable these day, especially from
tank raised frags. Most could probably get pretty close guess, but I gave up
trying to ID Acros a few years back when I had my coral farm going. If the
genus is correct thats close enough for me ;-). I use names like purple tip
Acro, tri-color Acro, green plating Montipora, etc... The first picture is
Pocillopora (probably damicornis) FWIW.
Good luck

I think your Green Slimer is actually a Yongi.

Nice pics, your tank will be even nicer in about a year when
that stuff grows out!
