Please ID new acros

I got three new acroporas. I think the first two are millepora, right? Any more specific names?

I don't know what the 3rd one is.

I like to know what I got so I then can search for the best care for these.

Thank you for any help with these.

I live in Prague now. I doubt you know the place. It is a small town in the middle of nowhere ... Czech Republic, called Kutná Hora. I was told they were Fiji imports - probably the last ones for a while

Thank you. Are you saying that the two I thought were Milli might also be prostrata or sarmentosa?

Or that

they are Milli, prostrata, and sarmentosa in that order?

I’d say milli, prostrata, sarmentosa in that order. Prostrata is basically like a milli variant anyway. The branch/shape is what makes me think so anyway.

I am glad you can tell the difference guys. The first two look a like to me. Ok, I did find blue tort that looks like mine in the picture. It got more brown since, but I hope with some love it will turn into a great color one.

Everybody can hope :-)

This just popped back up and I rechecked the photos, forget sarmentosa. The bulbous corallites aren’t there I thought I saw first time around. Does look like a tort/austera
