5 is a nice rock sell it to ur lfs get another frogspawn frag and what ever else you choose.
 
Just educated guesses, but should be pretty close...
1- Beaded Sea Anemone ( green )
2- Acanthastrea ( orange )
3- Mushroom Anemones ( Rhodactis )
4- Yellow sponge with Glove or Snake polyps on left, Toadstool Leather frag on right.
5- Frogspawn ( somewhat deteriorated )
6- Finger Leather or Tree coral ( deteriorated )
Good luck with your new acquisitions!!
 
I agree with all ids but number 1- rock anemone (unless the previous post is the same I just know it as rock anemone). Oddly enough my father in laws occelleris clown hosts the rock nem he has.

I was thinking Rock/Flower Nem too, but have never seen one with such extensive beading on the tentacles. Usually it's here and there on the Rock Nems
Google the Beaded Nem, their beading is from tip to base.
