The green mushroom is Ricordia
The red mushroom blastmusa
Other looks like an encrusting montiporia

Could have spelt the names wrong

Thanks for the quick reply! We have a seek and find laminated sheet for the kids for the tank and wanted to have tbe correct name!

Encrusting montipora, Florida ricordea, micromussa or blastomussa merletti.

I agree that the first two are a encrusting montipora and ricordea florida but to me the bottom looks like a favia. I've seen them id as blastos many times before and they look extremely similar but the polyps are wrong to my eye.

Blasto, nice fluffy polyps https://www.liveaquaria.com/product...aquacultured?pcatid=6056&c=597+2341+2513+6056

Favia, not probably the exact same species https://www.liveaquaria.com/product...aquacultured?pcatid=3159&c=597+2341+2513+3159

Favites was my guess "war coral"
