coral i.d and placement question

[Donnyreefer]

so I have these three corals and just wanted to get some info on where I should place them . I know they're low light coral but I'm just not sure if they're plating or what thank you in advance.

I want to ask so many questions but I don't know why I'm so embarrassed about being told I'm doing it wrong because this is something I really enjoy doing but I will take constructive criticism and it's something I'm working towards you got to get told you're doing it wrong in order to get it right so I completely understand that now . thanks everyone for the time .

20 gallon standard rimmed tank. Hob homemade refugium(running 8pm-8am). Hob skimmer.(Amazon , pulling black stuff out lol )
xr15 G6 pros running at 40% increasing to 75% over the next 30 days. I'm guessing average PAR . something I really wish I could check .
salinity - 1.026
phos. >0.02
nitrates >5
ph. 7.9-8.2
planning on getting a all-in-one tank and switching everything over except the sand and letting it run so I'm really only planning on having these coral maybe a few more for the next couple of months until I get that all figured out.

Don't be embarrassed. We all do stuff wrong until we learn more.

Welcome to reef2reef! I think you’ll find the community to be friendly and helpful. Don’t hesitate to ask for help but also be sure to research and learn as much as you can. Being a noob myself I can’t help you ID with confidence but I believe you have some LPS corals there. Guessing leptastrea, cyphastrea and goniopora. Let’s see what the experienced folks think

Pics fuzzy. Top may be galaxia, 2nd, , , , Lepastrea or micro Favia, third is cyphastrea or turbullina and Pics under best for accurate I.d.

sorry here's better pictures. just wasn't sure really that middle one sketches me out I think the other ones are just encrusting but is that middle one plating or should I worry about spacing when placing it on a lower rock? and Shanghai place them in different areas so they don't fight eventually when they grow into each other?
