Looks like Reverse Gorilla nipple zoas :) healthy colony at that!
Lol what a name. But these guys have way more colour inside dont you think? Outside looks right, inside doesn’t exactly match. Doesn’t help being colourblind too

I agree- the name could be better! Lol I’ll attach some photos I found online- while some can definitely be bland in coloration, I think you just have a very vibrant colony! With this being a quick growing zoa, morphs and varieties in color are not uncommon! :) this is just my opinion though

Lol when I received them next week in the mail, I’ll post another pic of them. This pic is taken by the seller. I only have this pic. Im guessing its so cheap cause they grow very fast. So im gonna make sure it’s totally seperated from my main rocks

There’s several morphs of gorilla nips, none of them are the painfully invasive type. They should do well for the OP.
