Please ID Corals

[ThisGuy12]

I got a container of corals, in the pictures below, from a guy who was tearing down his tank today. I'm fairly certain 2 of them are mushrooms, 2 are zoanthids, and 2 (large green and red corals) are montiporas. Also pretty sure the soft pink guy in the front is a devil's hand.

Can anyone confirm? Possibly ID the others I missed? How rare (if at all) are they?

Thoughts on them?

They are all in quarantine till I decide if I can house them or not and where to put them.

No one??? Huh.

1. some sort of mushroom on the left, some sort of clam on the right?
2. Pavona?
3. palythoas on the left, perhaps a Stylophora on the right?
4. Pavona on the left, palythoas or zoanthids on the right, maybe a Toadstool in the foreground (Sarcophyton)
5. same Toadstool
6. Palythoas or zoanthids

All of them are pretty common corals, although the Pavona doesn't seem to show up that often where I'm at. As long as your parameters are within reason and the lighting is sufficient, they're all pretty easy to keep as well. If you need a little bit more information regarding these, go to the link below and type in some of the names I've listed. GL.

Thanks cloak!

Hopefully this qt tank has never been treated with copper? I ask because it looks like it might have been setup for fish.

pic 2&4 are branching psammocora, pic 3 may be the same with some light depravation. depending on lighting it can be various shades of green in our t5 lighting it gets purple edges. I has very short "fuzzy" polyps, for us is a quick grower and does encrust.

No it hasn't, the tank is clean. It was setup for fish QT but wasn't in use so I decided the corals would be the first inhabitants.

Sounds intriguing! Can't wait to see him spawn.

Also be sure to visually inspect the coral (including the underside) for any pests/eggs.

I think bsagea might be right with the Psammocora identification. Found this at Liveaquaria.com

Please ID Corals

A friend who grows and deals frags locally thinks the right one in picture 3 is a brown/purple digitata, and that the green one in pics 2 & 4 is a green digitata.

The little guys on the bottom glass are supposedly mushrooms according to the guy I got them from. One looks to be a watermelon mushroom, but it appears to have some king of green bubble / egg looking hitchhikers that I'm going to have to take off.

Here's better pictures of the assumed digitatas.

While we are at it, thoughts on this guy?

*EDIT* you might be right, it may be a psammocora I took a look at some of them while more branchier than mine they look similar.

Its a pavona. There too many different pic to determine which one you need id for.

The third picture looks kind of like a Hydnophora.
