Opened up the box and what I think is the mushroom coral broken what do I do now? The other is a Duncan, pretty sure the broken is the mushroom.

Glue doesn't work well with shrooms when I tried. If you can place it in a small container of rubble it should attach. It looks like it may be attached to a little piece of rock? If so you can glue that where you want it. Shrooms don't need a lot of light so maybe place it on the bottom and see how it does. If it is attached to a piece of rock that is.

Hard to tell, but the shroom is that green little circle piece yes? Then that white piece it is attached too? New to this.

Shroom on the left. The white piece looks like a piece of rock which is good. You can use super glue to attach it to a piece of rock where you want it. If you want it a plug and don't have any you can scrape the old glue off the plug and glue it back in. Only apply glue to the piece of rock not the coral.

PS. I'm assuming that's a shroom. Hard to see detail but the other looks like a single Duncan head.
