Stopped by my local Petco, tough to tell what these are. One may be a leather and looks pretty healthy, anyone want to take a stab at these and whether they are worth the 25$ price tag?

#1 is a toadstool leather that looks to be in the process of shedding.
#2 looks like a finger leather of some kind, but not entirely sure.
#3 looks to be a bleached bubble-tip anemone.
#4 I assume is the same anemone that's closed up?
#5 looks to be another leather.

#1 and #5 might be worth the $25 with #5 looking the healthiest. I would not buy the anemone.
 
#1 looks like it might be a Long Polyp'd Leather. Looks like the one I got from them. Can't be 100% with the polyps withdrawn.
 
#3 may be a ball anemone . . . #4 is a green long tentacle anemone but could also be green condylactus which too has red base and #5 is finger leather

For anemones, assure moderate light and water flow and trace elements and iron in water and occasional feedings of brine or mysis shrimp
 
the anemones may need a cirpo treatment but others should bounce back. $25 isnt terrible but a bit high for the leathers. Green bta are usually a bit more

#3 is not a ball anemone unless it’s a species I’ve never seen.

I have one very similar but it also represents Majano . Hard to really tell when deflated- thats any coral

These are what my Ball Anemones look like. Smaller and kinda look like Zoas/Palys
