Hello, So I posted this somehwere else and should have gone here first.
I am trying to list all the corals I have but am running into problems with the names. If you fellow reefers can chime in on what these are that would be great. i don't care about fancy names, scientific terms are great! sorry for the bad pictures but its the wifes Sony Nx-3 camera and I couldn't figure out how to turn down the brightness and bring up the color.
First one was lost to an alkalinity swing but i left it in there and it came back to life but now it grows weird. it is very green with brown polyps. It had blue tips until last week when i changed out my 14k bulbs for 20k bulbs and now the tips are turning purple.

When I bought this second one, it was completely brown. For $5 bucks it was nice for its size but has since turned a very nice teal blue

this third one, seemed nice but forgot to ask what it was. polyps closed when I touched it trying to clean the glass to take a picture. green with blue tips

and fourth I bought when I was bored but there was only a kid there and he didn't know what it was. it was in the $20 section. the body is green with bright red polyps
