Well let's get started with these five. Here are my guess. I will include "cf." in the middle of the name to show confer, or closest resemblance IMO.

1. Acropora cf. nana http://coral.aims.gov.au/factsheet.jsp?speciesCode=0050
2. Acropora cf. solitaryensis http://coral.aims.gov.au/factsheet.jsp?speciesCode=0064
3. Acropora cf. parilis http://coral.aims.gov.au/factsheet.jsp?speciesCode=0469
4. Acropora cf. granulosa http://coral.aims.gov.au/factsheet.jsp?speciesCode=0033
5. Acropora cf. prostata if it keeps growing with elongated branches http://coral.aims.gov.au/factsheet.jsp?speciesCode=0824
 
@ Jason.

Wow, that was fast, thanks for your identification, all looks Plausible, love them all. Most of the big pictures i shot with my dive camera, good training, for my dive trip to the Maldives this sunday, where im going on a 10 day dive trip.

When i get back, i will post a new thread, about my setup.

Thanks again, i may have a few corals, that i didnt get pictures of, but i cant make it before my holiday, so i will post them after.

I am quite sure it is not jacquelinae but suharsonoi. Just look at those tips a bit thinner than the rest of the branches.
