I've had this coral for awhile. ,dont know the name,,started with large discs like the skeleton on the right , when the light got blocked by other corals the large discs died and babies began growing on the skeleton..now the skeleton on the left has either melted or something else is happening to the base of the babies,,thoughts??

Looks like a Fungia plate coral. Sometimes when the main "plate" dies, babies will sprout around the base as you are seeing in your tank. The white-ish looking area on the right looks like sponges feeding on the excess nutrients.
