Not sure about the clown, not up on the difference sorry. Those are mushrooms in the 2nd pic, i believe ricordias, good hitchiker. The 3rd pic is zoanthids. In pic 5 if you are referring to the green stuff towards the bottom, that is hair algae. As far as your 3 gal tanl, i think some corals and inverts would be fine, how much lighting do you have? I don't believe thats a midas blenny. Mine is more stream line and longer, but it could be a black blenny, i know the bi colors come in solid black, but then they wouldn't be bicolored :notsure:

ill list the answers as you listed the questions:
1. no i dea lol
2. the coral is a type of ricordea i love them (hints the name lol)
3. they look like people eaters but i cant tell exactly do they have little green "smiley" liek things in the center.
4. lol if you wait a bit for the rics to grow i would frag em ifi were u and put them in the little aquarium along with some other mushrooms or polyps andmaybe a shrimp.
5. they look liek hair algea and if i were you id get a lawnmower blenny to eat a little bit of it to keep it in check but i think they look cool too lol
6. the blenny looks like a dark midas blenny i think you might be onto somethin there but i cnt be sure. and as for the clowns well... i had to think on that one lol but i think they r black percs

The pics of your 2 clowns at the top of your post look like they are both false percs. The true percs have a much thicker black outline around their white spots. I agree that the "anenome" looking thing is a ricordea and I think the other polyps look like people eaters based on the pic. Not sure about the blenny but the other clowns you have are simply black and white clowns. I dont think that PC lights can support corals. I would go with a small MH bulb or a strong flourescent. Hope this helps.
These are pics comparing a false perc and a true perc. False perc is on top
