I just got back from a frag swap today and grabbed a few sps to try my hand with. I could use a little bit of help with id's though for placement and care.

Ps sorry about the flipped pictures the app seems to like to do that for some reason.
 
Don't see any SPS my friend, well that is if the first one is just a encrusting on a frag plug but it looks more like a Cyphastrea.
The first one is also a Cyphastrea, the third a regular green torch and the last a a candy cane or trumpet coral.
 
Candy cane corals are pretty easy to keep. Seems pretty hardy. I have mine on medium flow med/high light and does well.
 
2nd picture kind of looks like a scroll not too sure. As for the hammer, place in med/high flow/light. Hammers are really easy to keep same with all the euphyillias.
Like what Diesel said these aren't count as sps more so LPS.

Good luck with your set up
 
Thank you guys!
