Default Pics of Unknowns

I decided to take pics of everything i'm not sure about in my tank, if you all can give me positive ID's I'd appreciate it.

was told this is bubble coral, but i got it in white and purple and it don't get much bigger and don't spread. been in tank about 6 months.








what type of xenia is this sorry it fell, but i wanted to take pics while it was still out. doesn't come out much.




what's the curly green thing, strangling my gorgonian?


don't know what this is. took these pics a few days ago haven't seen it since.

That is type of bubble coral. Was it that size when you got it nunch? And the green thing is a piece of chaeto.

pretty much the same size, maybe gained a bubble or two.
the purple pops up randomly on the rock. the white is on both sides of it's rock. i bought those rocks (dead coral) for $1.99/lb, cause i thought it was bubble also.

Do you have it close to the light? Mine does really well with bright lighting. Mine also gets a low flow with a random blast of current.

Mine are in a med. to low flow area, but they sit on the sand cause i don't have enough LR to put any higher.

After looking at the pics again, I'd frag those off into a smaller manageable piece(unless you like the piece it's on). You can move them alot closer to light and get some steady; low flow. You can keep moving it around til' you find a good spot. Once you get it there you'll see some good growth. I've got one that has tripled in size in a few months.
This is a fairly recent picture.

I agree with mission. you can frag the dead skeleton off and place the coral where you want it. (moderate, indirect flow)

That's a nice pic. looks just like my gbm clown, same size.

I've never fragged anything, i wouldn't even know where to start, besides they're so small i'm scared i'll kill em'.
