got some questions w/ pictures

[copperhead3690]

so i've had my tank up and running for about a 2 months. all my parameters have been perfect for about a month and a half now. i've put some coral in there and i know most are polyps, but what kind? and i think they call the piece in the next to last picture brain coral? or a type of? not sure but i think so. and then the one in the second picture is really hard to see but it's read and coming off the piece of rock i have there. it kinda looks like miniature trees on a branch or somethin and it's red. didn't know if anybody could tell what it is. the empty hermit shell is pointing at it. and then the last pic is one of the newest addition to the tank. my bicolored blenny. i tried to get a good pic of him but that's his favorite spot in the tank and he goes there whenever i go to look at the tank. he just sits there and watches me till i get gone . any help would be great, and thanks guys!
