From the pics its hard to tell but here is what I'm thinking, in the second pic. 1 looks like its a mushroom. 2 looks like an acan lord and three looks like a torch coral. On the last pic its really hard to tell but maybe a psammacora?

The second picture is the coral I just got yesterday. Is it a bad idea to buy a rock that has multiple corals on it?
I will try to take better pictures.

Better pics would definitely help.
I was thinking monti cap for number 1 in pic 2.
Now a shroom and a monti cap are very different, thus the need for better pics.
Buying more than one coral on a rock is not bad, unless they are not compatible as neighbors and nothing is done to rectify that.

The first picture is definitely Alveopora (100% positive), http://www.melevsreef.com/pics/0205/td_alveopora.jpg <-- check it out. In the second picture you have a Lord Acan, I actually have the same one in my tank, a Mushroom (probably a Pimple Mushroom, but from the pic it's hard to tell) and a Torch Coral. If you feed the torch some meaty food each day it'll grow fairly quick and it a really nice coral. I'm not positive about the third picture.

Last picture looks like Hydnophora sp.
I think you are correct. I did a google on Hydnophora and the same picture popped up.
Now I will do more research about them. Many thanks.

I did look up Alveopora and I think are right on. I counted the pylop and there are 12 in each. very cool.
