1 looks like kenya tree or colt coral..

3 and 4 are both star polyps

2 is trumpet coral with zoanthids next to it.
 
5 is some kind of maze coral..fava or something similar..I'm not 100% sure about that.

7 looks like some kind of clove polyps but I can't tell for sure from the pic.

8 looks like Monti Cap.
 
Agree with Ziggy on all of them.

5 is probably some type of favia, but 6 is probably either a platygyra or possibly a ouphyllia or goniastrea.

7 do look like clove polyps, specifically Anthellia.
