Top picture looks like blue clove polyps, but it is hard to tell with the blues. The second pic is pulsing xenia.
 
1 pic hard to tell sorry.
2pic Anthelia sp. and Sarcophyton sp. (toadstool coral)
 
Ages with above. Hard to tell white lights will help also could be galaxy coral. The green ones in front of Xenia are toadstool leather coral green from the looks at. Looking for ones that size my self.
 
Been super busy hooking my apex up, new heaters, new sincce 5.0 pump, new rock to add, and cleaning the tank real good. Tomorrow little water change. In the mean time I took some better pics for you to look at.

Thanks I could not remember what they were. Gonna write it down this time lol.

The rock with the sympodium has several different corals on it. Can't see in the pic. There are several mushrooms and white toadstool on there. Would it be best to separate them all or will the do like it is? Really don't want the toadstool to be overtaken by any of the others.

The sympodium will take over the rock. Might be easier to remove the toadstool to a different area and isolate the sympodium if you want to keep it.
