I just picked these up today and not sure what both are.

Thank you :)
 
Second one looks like an anemone. Just curious why you would purchase without knowing what they are? You should always do research before purchasing corals to make sure they don't require special care. For instance, that anemone will need some decent light to stay healthy (looks like you have from the pics).

Research... I think that is a sign that I don't know what to do in this hobby and I just make blind purchases. I bought a Live Rock and it came with the hitch hikers... All I did was ask a question in hopes of receiving help.
 
1st pic looks like a majano anemone considered reef pest by most they look cool though never had mine get out I hand but there are plenty of horror stories out there

Second pic looks like a st thomas mushroom a very nice looking one

Idk if u care but there are also aptaisia in both pics those can get out of hand in a hurry best to deal with early

The rock is in my 5.5gl QT tank until I move the peppermint shrimp over to get rid of the aphasia, it is to small to use a syringe on it.
I don't get high quality stuff and it always comes with aptasia, but you QT it long enough and you might get something good.
Thanks for the post I was not to sure about them.
