very nice pics but can I suggest something?

The pic right under the snail or hermit is the flourecent green/pink brain coral, you should coax it into eating as it's starving when their that skinny it's hard for them to eat bigger food so try small pieces of mysis first then move to larger if you have food theives like the lobster or any fast swimming fish you can find a tupperware and put it over the coral when you feed it the easiest way I start my corals on a feeding frenzy is by using reef roids. I usually put a pinch in the sump by the return pump soon after I turn off all the flow when feeding tentacles are out and after that is just wait till the corals have finished the food then turn circulation back on. I have another type of brain coral that takes forever to eat how ever I have put him into mu new set up for a few months it was starved in my 120g reef cause I had a mystery wrasse that would snag food from it as it took almost 1/2 hr to eat but now in the new set up he's eating well once a week and has turned back around I hope you can enjoy your's better in time cheers!!
