Hey guys and gals, I just started keeping SPS and need some help identifying these so I can know the names:

1.

2.

3.

4.

5.

6.

7.

8.


Thank in advance. I have in the past been more of a fish guy, but am venturing more into SPS. I know SPS are more demanding. I am dosing ALK, CAL, MAG to keep up with the demand. Water params are pristine (no ammonia, no nitrites, almost non-existent Nitrates, mag in range, phosphates 0ppm, etc).
 
My guesses:

1. The first is blurry. I can't tell if it is a Acropora or Montipora.
2. Possibly A. loripes. http://coral.aims.gov.au/factsheet.jsp?speciesCode=0042
3. This could be Acropora spathulata. http://www.iucnredlist.org/details/132937/0
4. A. secale http://coral.aims.gov.au/factsheet.jsp?speciesCode=0062
5. A. aspera http://coral.aims.gov.au/factsheet.jsp?speciesCode=0009
6. Maybe A. macrostoma http://coral.aims.gov.au/factsheet.jsp?speciesCode=0821
7. A. humilis http://coral.aims.gov.au/factsheet.jsp?speciesCode=0035
8. The last could be A. papillare or another species like 3 or 5. http://coral.aims.gov.au/factsheet.jsp?speciesCode=0838
