What is this coral?

[rjarnold]

I have two red corals - the first is a donut LPS coral, but I'm not sure if the second is similar or completely different.

Here is the donut:

Here is the 2nd red one that I'm not sure on ID:
(under light)

(at 'night')

Thanks for any tips on the ID =D

Open brain.

Yes, I'm pretty certain the first one is Cynarina...I'm looking for pictures of an open brain that look like the second currently Think little pieces of cut-up silversides will work as food? I did feed mysis a couple days ago.

I think I got it...the first is the donut coral Cynarina sp. cf. deshayesiana and the second is also a Cynarina type - looks to be Cynarina lacrymalis ( http://www.liveaquaria.com/product/prod_Display.cfm?pCatId=460 ), commonly called a button coral.

Mmm, quick image search doesn't reveal any blasto coral that looks similar to it...I'm pretty sure the identification that I put above is correct. Of course, I could be wrong

These are both rather large as well - baseball sized, with the first being perhaps larger than that.

"Sometimes, it is confused with its closest relative, Scolymia." You'll have to state why you think it's Scolymia and not Cynarina as pictures are closer to Cynarina

Edit: And it doesn't look anything like the picture you posted
