but see the first could be a torch,frog, hammer, all retract like that the other could be a meat, plate,candy and host of other things.
better pictures and descriptions are need for the ID there is no detail in the photos to distinguish what they are.

I'd say the first looks 'most similar' to Hammer Coral (but could be Frogspawn). The second looks like a Mushroom or the beginnings of Open Brain Coral (could be Meat Coral as well). Kinda hard to tell with the pics slightly out of focus.

Try putting the camera right up to the glass, I think its trying to focuse on the glass and not whats behind it. I just figured that out myself after about houre and 20 pics.

Read my post above (and others). Looks like either Hammer Coral or Frogspawn. Other one could be a Mushroom or Brain Coral (possibly Meat Coral). Sorry I can't give a positive ID on that one. But the 1st one definately is either Hammer or Frogspawn. When those tips fully inflate and are protruding what does the tips of them look like? If they're 'rounded off' balls then its Frogspawn; if they have a "T-shape" tip that resebles a hammer then its Hammer Coral. One of those two FOR SURE. The second one you may need to wait 'til it develops a little more to get a pos.ID, unless someone has the same thing and can give it. But like I said, read above, it's probably one of those 3 things we've said. Good luck.
 
its not a mushroom it looks like this inside That link is not allowed it has direct links to competitors of SWF.com on it i know its an LPS coral
o and i think the other one is a torch coral I think
