hmm... ill give it a shot...
1. Elegance coral (catalaphyllia jardinei)
2. open brain coral. (trachiophyllia geoffryi) or an acanthastrea echinata? the mouth is throwing me off. it could be a acanthastrea hilliae also, but the lines on it make me believe it to be a trachiophyllia.
3. Nautilus (nautilus pompilius perhaps?)
4. bubble mushroom. (rhodactis sanctithomae) yuma. (ricordria yuma) i would also guess, but the different colors of the bubbles compared to the bottoms make me believe it could be a bubble, even though they are more round than jagged.
5. Dragon seahorse (phycodurus equs)

1. Elegance coral
2. Scolymia/Doughnut or meat coral; maybe open brain?
3. looks like a snail foot
4. probably ricordia

Sorry I didn't follow the rules.
1. Elegance coral-Catalaphyllia jardinei
2. Button or Doughnut- Scolymia vitiensis; or Open brain- Trachyphyllia geoffroyi
3. psuedofoot of a snail, usnsure of type

Well, this comp shall be closing in the morning peeps...are we going to get this one nailed and get 5 correct answers? or is it gonna be Niko 1 - AC 0 ????
oooh, heck no...haha
is it everything i said above only with 2 being the meat coral (scolymia vitinensis)?

that is the one that is throwing me off... i cant tell if the thing in the bottom right is a single polypy mouth or just the edge of a different colored large mouth like a trachiophyllia or a scolymia.
