Acropora Indentification

[grumpygils]

I need some help identifying some of the following Acros and also what a very good (buyers) price would be. The table acro is over 14" round and I will probably frag some of it. Also, is there any good place where I can see pics of Acro and the names? The bergundy long acros have purple tips and the table has small gree/yellow tips.
Thxs,
Mc

the one with the purple tips is a staghorn. the acro looks like a common brown acro all very nice and healthy

My camera sucks, but there is a strong fluorescent green sheen to the stags.

ehh, the stag is a relatively fast grower. id say between $10-$15 for a frag between 1"-2". a colony of 9" or so could fetch between $65 and $75 IME.
the table would cost considerably more. around $20 for a 1"-2" frag. for a piece 14" round id say easily over $100.
but then again it depends on how available each is in your area and the colors of the exact piece.
