Guess for you as the pictures are blurry
"True Blue Mushrooms" Actinodiscus sp.
They look good. They are very easy to keep. What kind of lighting do you have over them? They don't need much as far as light, and enjoy little bits of fish food, brine shrimp and such. They can be fast growers, and can take over neighbors if not kept in check.

Mushrooms are a good beginners start. I would stay with soft corals till you upgrade your lighting system. https://www.saltwaterfish.com/Soft-Corals_c_76.html
What size of tank do you have these in?

IMO they are Actinodiscus Mushrooms These corals display a wide variety of colors, textures, and patterns. Some are solid colors, whereas, others are striped or spotted.
In general, they need a medium light level and a low to medium water flow they are semi-aggressive and require adequate space between themselves and other corals. Below is a pic I just took as you can see I keep mine on the substratum.

Yellow is my guess as to what it was specifically, due to the blurry.
Red was the positive species

Red is what I was talking about.....
Yellow was all guess/thinking..... guilty as charged
I usually don't throw species out like that, but as I didn't know specific color or pattern due to blurry, I stated species, cause I knew what it was....... (Hey this is a moral victory for me......
, really meaningless any other way, cause we both said the same thing.)
