Preface:
I'm relatively new to saltwater tanks and corals but I've have lots of previous experience with hydroponics and freshwater fish keeping. I currently have 3 freshwater tanks a fully automated hydroponic grow system. So, the transition to saltwater wasn't the worst thing in the world but its entirely a new world for sure.
My tank is a 20 IM Nuvo and I have custom ATO, pH monitoring, temperature monitoring, with two A029 reef lights that I've bypassed the manual controls and use PWM to control the drivers for custom light profiles. All the information sent to Grafana cloud using a Prometheus server and alarms set if any parameters run astray.
Onto the real question,
I bought these four coral three days ago from my LFS and I believe that I got a pretty good deal. I only paid $190 for the the coral and one lawn mower blenny. However, I'm just wanting to verify that these coral are what I believe them to be. These pictures are edited so that I could get them to look as close as possible to what I see but they aren't perfect.
Pinwheel Fungia?
Kryptonite Candy Cane??
Aussie Super Orange Lobo????
Neon Green Stylophora???
And lastly any tips on raising these specific corals or what I could change with my setup?
