Coral ID
First I just wanted to show off my huge anemone. It's prob 10 inches across it takes up quite about of room but the fish scene where I live is minimal so no where to rehome it.
ImageUploadedByTapatalk1411407790.617622.jpg And I would like an id on this coral ImageUploadedByTapatalk1411407837.818800.jpg And the last question is on this brain will it make its own skeleton or how does it grow. ImageUploadedByTapatalk1411407962.080410.jpg Thanks

#2 is maybe a flower nem? Can you get a shot from the side?
#3 is favia. It will secrete new skeleton as it grows laterally. Sometimes they grow in more of a dome shape.

Don't believe it's an anemone it's really skinny I was told it's some kind of encrusting coral. The skeleton is hard with the tiny feelers.

Is it thin like a potato chip with tiny feelers on it? Maybe Pavona?

I think you are right on. I would guess Pavona.
In that first pic it looks really hungry
