Mystery Corals...

[Crawdaddy2003]

I got these guys from the LFS but I don't know what they are. Can anyone help ID them?

This bluish-green one used to open up and be kind of like a big blob of jelly, but it doesn't do that anymore... kind of looks like it's going downhill but I don't know what it is and don't know what to do differently with it...

And with the picture links... I tried posting the "tag" of the photo from photobucket.com but that didn't work. Is there a way to have the pics come up on this site without having to use a link?

Thanks

Agreed on the Trachy. I dont recognise the first coral though. When the Trachy acclimatises, remeber to feed it defrosted BS, Bloodworms, cockle, squid, prawn etc regularly.

For the Trachyphilia (the greenish one), what kind of tank placement should it have? High/low light/waterflow? I have had it for a couple months now and it is no longer puffing out like it used to. I was not aware that it had to be fed when I bought it and its mouth looking parts are not open anymore so that I can feed it. Any suggestions?

Thanks

They should be placed in the sand bed in medium to low flow. They dont like High flow. If you havnt fed it for a while like it should have been, try moving it to a low flow area, wait until night and see if it extends its tenticles. IME its hard to feed a trachy that isnt extending anymore.
