Love your sand bed, your tank looks good. The second pic looks like a Xenia of some sort or maybe Anthelia. Photos are kinda dark.

I went out to J&L's to bring back a cleaner shrimp that died before i even got him out of his bag. (i got him with the clown fish) and while there I grabbed a colt coral and a rock full of green button polyps. I also grabbed a ELOS phosphate test kit and a Sybon refractometer (my ventrex one didn't compensate for temp so i wasn't sure of it's accuracy...and i'm not a fan of math!)

A buddy came by my place to trade some of his frags for driftwood/fish in my 125 planted tank. He brought with him his test kits from home to make sure everything is OK with my water chemistry. All tests came up good.

After floating the frags for a while we started to place them around the tank. Some opened up immediately, others took a bit, but now they are looking good. The tank is glowing under the moon lights and i wish i could get a decent picture but no luck so far.

I already forgot the names of most of these but here's some pictures. I know there is hammer coral, a couple zoas, an electric green lps (dont remember what harp called it) and some more.
