Looks like a favites and a leptoseris. Green eyed moon coral and jack o lantern lepto.
 
Thanks! So that Jack o Lantern will have green as it grows out! Will be nice!

I mostly agree with JGT, but dont think thats a Jack-o-lantern variety. Think it probably one that I often see called "tangerine" lepto. Dont think you gonna get the green in it.
 
I think so, as well, after I replied, I started looking and that’s what I was leaning towards as well. Should get some great color out of that one day as well! Thank you guys.
 
You guys could be right. Pic is a little hard to see the details. With proper conditions, both will spread-for better or worse:)
 
Can I ask for another ID please? I’ve been adding things to the aquarium over the past two years that I have had it set up, but honestly the last few additions I failed to keep track of what they were! Feel like a slacker but want to get my notes up to date!
This one I took with my cell so not as good as my main camera but hopefully you can tell me what is it.

acanthastrea pachysepta. Sold as Lobophyllia but if it engulfs food quickly it is acanthastrea pachysepta (I learned that right here on @R2R
 
When I spot feed it, it definitely responds and eat immediately. When they grow will they split off similar to how a trumpet splits? Developing two “mouths” then becoming their own oval?
 
So the first one I have no idea. The second one I was told was an acro but it doesn't look like any acro I've seen. I get coral from a person who throws in a free coral and I never know what it is until I get home. She used to run a large reef store but now sells out of her garage.
