First one looks like it could be an Echinophyllia/Chalice
Second is Turbinaria/Yellow Scroll Coral.
 
That one is also a Turbinaria but a Pagoda Cup, very different coloration, with a completely different growth type.

To keep the Scroll coral yellow it requires intense lighting, to produce the scroll growth structure, moderately high flow. These are slow growers.
 
Thank you guys! Any more tips or facts about these two? Chalice is med/med correct?
 
Sorry I am not a Chalice expert, but I would say mod flow and mod lighting should be fine.

If you can get a top down shot of the piece I might be able to make a definite ID.
 
Can anyone tell me what the name of the above chalice is? Also, I need an id on this coral if anyone knows...

That looks like a Leptoseris, suppose it could be Pavona gigantea as well.
 
You know, that's what I thought, a Lept.! Just wanted to be sure. How bout the chalice above?
