to make a long story short..
when i got my tank (complete setup locally) it came with a lot of corals.. non of witch i know the exact names of. two died.. elegance & xena or w/e but the xeina died because it fell upside down for 2 days and it never recovered.. as for elegance i was clueless i saw my cleaner shrimp messing with it a lot then within a matter of a week it was completely deteriated. anyways.. here are some pictures of corals i have and if i could get some specific names that would be great!!

We're gonna need a bigger pic, or close up pics of the corals you want to be identified.
I can see zoo's on the left and the right and that might be a bubble coral on the right center

hmm third pic from left to right
green star polyps?, two brain corals possibly, bubble coral, and below that a ricordia maybe but i don't see it in any of the other pics.
that is my best guess on those it is pretty tough to tell from the pics some are pretty dark. close up pics of some of the corals would definately help. try photobucket it is alot easier.

try this:
shut off lights in the room, and turn on all tank lights. turn your camera's flash off
take the pics as best as you can, with large format. crop to the individual corals and post them on photobucket and link them in here.
so far i am agreeing with the IDs thus far. tho last picture back left looks like candycane.
