Hi, just setup my tank and added the LR and was amazed at the amount of life on the rock and was hoping that someone could identify some of it for me. Here are some photo's.

All I can positively tell you is that the third picture looks like a type of button polyps. I have a large group of them. Mine really like actinic lighting and open up really big when the lighting comes on. Sorry I couldn't identify the rest for you but I dont have my books with me. HTH

1.) Some kind of Acropora

2.) Turbinaria

3.) Zoanthid

4.) I don't know.

5.) A collection of algae and a sponge or sea squirt.

6.) That bubble could be another sponge.
