ID me please

I got this down at Dr. Macs... he said it was an Aussi "something or other" .. not an acan.

Zoa's that I got down there as well. Not sure if they might have been named.

Got this at Aquatic Obsessions. It's obviously some sort of brain but not sure which one. It's a baby blue color and a greenish/gray color on the outsides. I like this thing alot but not sure what species of brain.

1. My first guess would be Goniastrea sp. (Goniastrea palauensis or Goniastrea retiformis for example). Second choice would be Favia sp. or Favites sp.

3. Lobophyllia sp., Symphyllia sp. or Isophyllia sp. most likely.

Mike...First one looks very much like an Australian Goniastrea. The last one is very likely a Lobophyllia with "feeding" tentacles extended. Can't help re names of zoas.

Beautiful photos of some beautiful, healthy corals.

Thanks guys .. I do remember Dr. Mac saying Goniastrea now. thank you.

And Mike thanks for the Zoa ID.

Still no ones 100% on the Lobo though.

I'll keep looking.

thanks,
mike.

First looks like a Favites sp, since the coralites have a shared wall. I remember this by using the "t"=together whereas favia sp. have individual coralite structures. The third pic, open brain looks like an Oulophyllia species.
