#1 is a Torch (Euphyllia sp.)

2-6 are Zoanthids and Palythoa.

7 is hard to be sure but looks like a torch also.

8-9-10 are more zoas and palys

11. Acanthastra sp.
 
1 could be a torch or a grape coral.
2 is not zoa or paly it's some sort of soft coral that mats but more like a pagoda coral but soft. I have one as well, did you get that from deep blue?
3-6 zoa/paly
7 galaxia
8-10 zoa/paly
11 acan
 
Hey Jenn thanks a bunch, I know there is a big discussion on the names of the zoas and i bought them because I liked them and the price was great. Any idea of what people call them, someone asked me once If I had a specific name I had no idea what they were talking about, I told them you have to come check out whats in the tank and you can tell me what people call them.
 
Call 'em what you want :)

That one might be a galaxea - I've not seen one with polyps quite that long but it's a possibility. So db366 might be right on that one.

3 looks like nuke green
9 is eagle eye
10 is radioactive dragon eye

Thats the common names but you could also say that 10 is jason fox fast money and make a killing.. joking..
 
Awesome db366 Thanks all, cool. I think it is galaxia, that rings a bell what I looked up before I bought it, will do some research on that to be sure, its doing well so my research must have been that I can keep it :)

Edit: hey DB do you know what #8 are called?
