Help ID this acropora please. PICS

[Ding2daDong]

I bought a tank that was up and running and the guy has many acroporas which he claims were almost all from ORA except a few other rare corals but I can't seem to ID some of them.

Any help would be greatly appreciated;

This acro has huge polyp extension with a blue base, even bluer tips with a tan color polyps.

This I think is a Millipora, has green base with pink polyps/stalks.

This acropora has a tan/light green base with neon blue polyps.

Lastly a green with green polyp acropora.

#1= Acropora tenius
#2= Acropora millipora or prostrata (difficult to tell from small frags unless you get a super up close macro of the coralites)

I agree with Rich, although the milli-prostrata could be another species from the same group. Hard ot tell at this point in developement.

The third one may be A. formosa (muricata), but the third is a bit too unclear to take a real guess.
