Coral ID

Hi,

I was wondering what type of coral is in the first picture. It’s mouth which I think is in the middle has been bulging a lot towards the end of the night is that normal.

and the second pic is a war coral right?

Thanks

First one looks like a rhodactis mushroom, second war coral

Oh and for the mouth bulging, you might want to lay the mushroom flat or on a side rock where it gets low flow. It might be reacting to either flow changes or lights out, but that isn't an issue as long as it is expanding like in your photo.
