Help me identify this coral

Post by Flyntexa »

I picked these up earlier and I'm wondering if anyone can help me identify the species.

First thought, war coral. Others, I agree, likely Favia.

I'm inclined to agree with war coral on the first one. Number 2 seems to resemble a goniastrea. The third one, I'm leaning more towards an acan.

Thanks for the IDs, guys. Now I'm curious about lighting - any tips on what these corals need? Are any of them sensitive to too much light?

Favites is a possibility, but I'm leaning more towards war coral on the first one.

First one looks like favites to me, the other two seem more like favia.
