Good morning,
I was recently given a coral pack for my tank and I am new to corals. Could someone help me ID these? I took pictures in full light and under their evening light as well.

First looks like a sinularia leather and second a montipora digitata. If it is a monti then you are better off pointing it vertically or the polyps on the now underside will die off. They are a branching species that grow upwards.

Thank you! The monti was vertical on a frag plug but it popped out last night, I will be sure and find a good spot to place it vertically.
