Bought a few corals in the past few weeks I know what they are but don’t remember or know if they have specific names

3 Zoas, 1 Duncan coral and 1 mushroom?

Definitely a Duncan, rhodactis shroom, and zoas.
As for trade names, the only one I know is the last zoas, which look like Mohawks to me. I wound keep them as far from the main rocks as possible unless you want it covered in them very fast.
The thing about names is that it only matters if you want to sell them. Otherwise all that matters is that you like how they look.
 
1. Duncanopsammia axifuga
2. Rhodactis sp.
3. Zoanthus sansibaricus
4. Zoanthus cf. vietnamensis
5. Zoanthus cf. vietnamensis
