Coral ID Help - I Think I Bought Them From GWS3 (Graham)

I am trying to figure out the names for these three corals.  I think I bought all of them from GWS3 (Graham), but I am not sure.

 

Any ideas?  I think the last one might be a Blue Tort.

 

The corals I am trying to figure out are all centered in the pictures.

 

Thanks,

Bruce

hard to tell with the pic but the first one looks the same as my ORA Ice that I got from the same seller.

Ya, I totally agree with you.  That was one of two guesses I had.

 

I am now convinced on that one.

Bruce I think the first one is my Deep Blue Tort.  It could be the ORA Ice but usually that has some green on the base.

 

The second one looks like one of the Nasutas... raspberry or rainbow.

Graham,

 

Thanks for the hints.  I will go through my notes/journal on my tank and see if I can narrow it down further.

Graham,

 

So on 2/9/2013 I bought 7 corals from you.  three of them were Raspberry Nasuta, Rainbow Nasuta,and ORA Ice Tort.

 

Given that purchase, I can now narrow down the first coral to the ORA Ice Tort.  The second one is a toss up between the two Nasuta corals.  To the naked eye, the Nasuta coral is kind of a light greenish/turquoise base color with redish polyps/corallites (I think that is what they are called).  Does that help narrow it down?

 

Thanks,

Bruce
