The top 3 look like Neon Wrasse Halichoeres Melanurus but it's alway hard to tell but it's in that family, Halichoere.

The 4 picture looks like it's in the Macropharyngodon family, maybe a Potter's wrasse or something like that.

The last photo you got me.

You probably want to do a search on the web for a site that list Hawaiin fish as I'm sure these are probably common and listed there.

I am trying.. keeping only wrasses in my sps setup.. I like to keep fish from the same origins, they tend to survive better that way.. now i am missing the flame wrasses.. lol
