What types of corals are these? I rescued them from LFS where they were overgrown with algae. I thought acan or favia but not sure how to tell.

1st one looks like some sort of merulinid, maybe a favites.
2nd one is some sort of micromussa. Maybe a lordhowensis.
3rd one, I can’t tell. Looks like it’s on its way out.

Wow they had four of these on one frag together. Odd that they were mixed like that.
I’m trying to figure out where to place them and what distance from others.
thanks for all the replies!

Favites and Micromussa I put on the sand in 150ish par. Micro will not sting anything.
Favites may.
