    I'm going to take a shot! But just want to make sure you understand I'm guessing here. I'm pretty new at this, so if anyone would like to confirm it would be cool.

    First one looks like "Needle or Birds Nest Coral"
    birdsnest coral - Google Search
    Second one looks like a "Purple plate Coral" of some sort.

    Third one looks like a green Acropora. I don't know which variety though.

    Please confirm, just in case.
    I'll leave the rest to the experts :)

    I agree with montipora, the coral above the clown looks like a montipora in pic 7 and pic 8 looks like a pocilopora or a tree coral (softie).
