Thanks! The second piece has holes on it where claws like things come out and filter for food. Any idea what that species might be?

It's really hard to tell exactly which species, especially from the photos. However, those holes you describe sound like worms. Possibly spionid worms.
If you really want to know exactly which species it is, you might try googling "echinophyllia" and looking at the images. Up at the top, in the images section, you should see other species that are similar to echinophyllia, like aspera, echinopora, etc. Just browse through those until you think you've ID'd it. FYI, all chalice care is pretty similar, with the only major difference being, in my experience at least, tolerance to lighting. Some can take high light. Most can't.
