Welcome to canreef and here you go

Any ideas for my problems?... Or my placement of the corals

[Skimmerking]

looks great may be think about getting rid of that temper thermometer the one hanging in the top left corner. I have never liked them bad news if they break. Just Sayin

[eli@fijireefrock.com]

from what it looks like to me.
.The snail is a tropical abalone (A ferocious algae eater)
.the decayed head of the torch is not possible to bring back.I would give your entire coral an iodine bath.
.Chalice color changing possibly of light changes or placement in the tank,its fine and healthy looking.As long as it doesn't start to recede or skin flaking off.
.purple plant I am not of the name.the yellow looks like diatom.
.purple green and red looks like calcareous plants.
I am sure more people will chime in

What type of thermometer would u suggest... Don't really like the surface strips that go in the outside... What do u think about the stuff growing on my live rock
