First two look like they could be Acropora gemmnifera (sp?) and the last one could be Acropora millipora (sp?).

my guesses:
1) A. tenuis
2) A. yongei (green slimer)
3)?
4)? Maybe A. hyacinthus, tabletopping
5) Purple tip acropora...
6) ?
7) A. samoensis or A. humilis
Where did you get them? They look awesome, I'd be interested in getting some from where you got them!
Good luck with the acropora, they are tricky sometimes but can really reward you with their fast growth and dazzling beauty.

Thanks Spiffman and thebicyclecafe. I got them from one of the top shops in Japan - place in Tokyo called Natural. This page shows their SPS listings:

They have a few hundred pieces available at any time - pretty impressive.
If anyone has time and recognises any pieces I'd really appreciate some help in coral selection as I have no idea how any of these will turn out. I really want to select pieces that will end of beautiful yellows, blues, purples, greens, reds and pinks. I got alot of green this time so next batch I'm looking to get corals more on the red/pink side. Any ideas?
BTW Spiffman, great site under your WWW.

Those are the ones I think have a lot of potential (as well as the ones I would choose for myself
). I tend to pick shades of blues as my favorites (so take those selections with a grain of salt 
), but tried to choose ones that might come out pink or green. Good luck! I'd like to jear how all of this turns out for you, so keep us posted.

I wouldn't do deepwater if you're just starting out... IME a lot harder to care for.
