Hello everyone. I have two LPS I was looking for help identifying. They were sold as random chalice and random mushroom corals. The chalice coral is ~1.5" diameter while the mushroom is ~2" diameter.

*Edit- I'm sorry that the mushroom is in the wrong subforum

The "chalice" kind of looks like a tongue coral to me.
 
The top one is a typical Lithophyllon sp., essentially an encrusting fungia. The second one is a really nice Rhodactis.
Good luck and God bless!
 
Thank you to all who replied for the identifications. This info will really help me out!
