Not into coral yet, but a local petco had some frags for $25 each, just wanted to see if any of these are worth that
 
Bunch of random leather corals, the greenish one is the only one I would consider, no one wants ugly brown ones!

Pic 1:
Toadstool leather, green sinularia, sinularia, thick finger lobophytum
Pic 2:
Sinularia, devils hand leather, toadstool, maybe a toadstool but it looks quite unhealthy.

All are very hardy and great beginner corals. I got my leathers at a petco for the same price.
 
The got, I believe, cyano on the base. Also setting up a tank today so no go. I like the look of the toadstool though.
 
The toad stools will get very big. I’ve got one from there. Whenever I get something from that place I consider it a rescue

Those are Sclerophytum, not Sinularia. There was a recent reclassification that reduced Sinularia to just S. brassica.
