These were listed as Stereonepthya. The one with the long thick trunk and arms at top I’m thinking is a litophyton, the one with branches coming off closer to the bottom may be a Stereonepthya?

My knee-jerk reaction was two Kenya Trees.

These tree corals are confusing lol. I ran the photos through two AI sites and both of them are saying they are litophyton/stereonepthya as they have a more smooth trunk with uniform polyps where Kenya tree looks a little more messy with polyps everywhere and not as vibrant of color
