I think your 50 mm is also FX. I'm not sure about your fisheye. Your 100mm macro may be FX. Need more info on your lenses.

My lenses are:

Nikkor 50mm 1.8

fx

Nikkor 35mm 1.8

Dx

Tokina AF 100mm f/2.8 AT-X M100 Pro D

fx

Nikkor 18-55

dx

Nikkor 55-200

dx

Rokinon 8mm Fisheye

not sure

and I recently got a good deal on the Sigma 10-20 4-5.6, which is on its way.How can I tell off the bat if it will work on FX as well?

sigma is dx. each brand has its own designation as to whether its it is for a full or cropped sensor. Third party makers may not use Dx designation without permission.
