Trying new place out tonight, could you guys help me identify the fish in nigiri plate?

1. Hello, I tend to order nigiri plates without knowing what I’m eating! I’d like to start identifying the sushi so I can order the pieces I especially like ala cart. I eventually want to try an omakase that is nearby, but they ask what pieces you tend to like before preparing…

   I can identify the salmon eggs, egg nigiri, and the salmon nigiri. I think I can also spot a cooked shrimp and non fatty tuna (the dark red one) but those are really just guesses based off Google.

2. Left from top to bottom: shrimp, eel, egg, salmon roe

   Right from top to bottom: tuna, squid or maybe halibut? (if chewy, was squid), salmon, IDK from the picture, tuna belly, and the last one looks like red snapper from the top but not sure.

3. It’s all salmon. Just eat it.

4. the white one, top right is probably kingfish
