Hi, I just came back from reefapalooza NY but I’m trying to figure out some of the coral names

I only put the torch because I wanted to know what kind it was, same with the zoas

Everything else, I don’t know what they are besides maybe a monti lol

Thank you!

1 and 3 are cyphastrea. 4,5 and 6 are zoanthids. @Zoanthids has an excellent identification site.
7 is a torch and 8 looks like a psammocora
 
Would need clearer photos to tell more accurately but I'll try my best.
  1. cf Cyphastrea
  2. cf Psammocora
  3. left to right: Mycedium cf elephantotus, either Hydnophora or Echinopora lamellosa, either Psammocora or Leptoseris
  4. Zoanthus cf sansibaricus; would need to see colony open
  5. Zoanthus cf vietnamensis
  6. Zoanthus sansibaricus
  7. Euphyllia glabrescens
  8. Pavona cf duerdeni
