Coral ID

Bought this encrusting coral the other day. The salesperson just called it an “encrusting coral”. There’s two different ones on the frags, does anyone know exactly what kind they are?

hmmm I cannot really tell from the picture, is there anyway to get a closer more clear picture? From what I can see, maybe its a Leptastrea??

Sorry for the blurriness. Where it’s sitting I can’t get a pic by sticking the phone against the glass

The left one looks to be a leptoseris. TSA lava fields if I had to guess.

They look like a couple kinds of leptastrea.

I think I have the same thing. It looks to be a Bling Bling cyphastrea.
